Reviewer: David Fisher - December 23, 2014 Subject: Review This is a great piece of history preserved and well written. Contrary to the biased and illegitimate reviews just below, this is a great detailed and descriptive view of the pilgrim's travels and engagements. The pilgrims have been maligned and greatly misrepresented but to hear of their great ENDEAVORS and travails and how their Christian beliefs made quite a positive and miraculous difference as they carried on and showed what it means to know and trust Jesus Christ with their lives! History preserved and a must listen to. This is truly courageous! |
Reviewer: Sam Taylor - September 22, 2014 Subject: Preface I've read some books with views hateful toward Catholicism, but this is the most disturbing anti-Catholic preface I've ever read. If you want to judge a religion, that's fine by me-- but you should understand it before you do. Everyone jumps to conclusions to Catholics and never gives them a chance. Contradictory to common belief, that is NOT a Christ-like practice. That's all I have to say. |
Reviewer: Ed S - November 24, 2013 Subject: History of Plymouth Sttlement What an ugly, hateful biggited preface, I thought I was reading Mein Kampf. |
