Negative Positive
Title: A "selected" history that is misguided and jumbled.
Review: This book starts off promising, but takes two wrong turns after the halfway point of the book. First, the chapters on homosexuality and abortion read as ultra-lefist Catholic bashing until he seems to turn about face at the end of the chapters. Second, the last part of the book on St. Augustine seems out of place. I can kind of see what Willis was doing here, but it is a bit of a stretch. In sum, this book is "choppy" and frequently strays off the course of its purported thesis. It has its moments, but not enough of them to warrant spending too much time on this book.
Is the review positive or negative?
