5.0 out of 5 stars
a comprehensive study
May 23, 2019
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This
is a mammoth study of the early Bible Student and related groups. It is
358 pages of 8.5 x 11 paper in small print. Of what I read so far it is
accurate. I know of no other study that is even close in
comprehensiveness, documentation and breath, looking not just at Russell
but related groups and persons including Barbour, John Paton and
others. The author looks at not only historical record but also critics
of the movement including Professor Penton and Carl Johnson. The last
page was intended to be an index which never was finished. It would have
been an invaluable addition to the book. This book was clearly a
lifetime work.

Well you can't get higher than 5 out of 5 on Amazon, so very nice to see. As I remember, the index was promised for Volume 2. Is that still the plan?
Since there will be a third volume, it will appear there. Otherwise, it will cause a long delay in getting out vol 2, and have to be repeated with vol 3. Also, I'm making slight revisions to vol 1, and an index must be keyed to the revised version.
