Very interesting book. Shows much of the origins of the ancient roman pagan religion from which the roman catholic church evolves from with the similarities very identifiable. I believe the author put in a great amount of research into this book. I trust these older books written over 150 years ago more so than modern PC books of today.
This was a replacement copy for me. I miss the illustrations, but each time a pastor asks me for a list of basic books he should have in his library this is one of them. Anyone who wants to understand the truth of world history should have this book.
Amazing ancient history that shows the origin of many religions. This copy is an ebook, and has no photos. The older versions in print show statues, -architecture ,and many artifacts. Written years ago by a brilliant theologian and historian it deals with the origins of most religions of the world and that influence which has been handed down to religions of today. I do wish this e-book contained photos. History Buff .
I find the information interesting and I think he is accurate. However, so far in my reading it seems his writing expects his readers to have certain understanding of ancient documents as a part of their background. I understand what he is saying - that is clear, but I don't have a body of background study to draw out a greater understanding.
This is a serious study book, not a pleasure reading book. Some of the information in this book probably dictates the need for a higher education than I have. But it is still a good study book. Be prepared to do some additional research.
I really enjoyed how Reverend Hislop used mythology and the classical authors to prove that the Papacy not what it seems...This is a must read if you want to know what happened to ancient Paganism in the wake of Christianity.
This classic is an indispensable reference to the origin of most Catholic doctrines and practices which Hislop brilliantly links to Babylonian paganism. What the Truth seeking believer always felt about the Church all along is well proven throughout the pages of this well written book. Not the easiest read mind you. Nevertheless, if you are patient and attentive, the vast knowledge to be gained is well worth working through the difficult text. Must have for every believer' s library.
As with anything written per 1900, the English is a bit different, and the style of writing tends to be repetitive. The information draws upon materials most of us wouldn't be able to read, so there's no real way to confirm it's accuracy. Yet many details can be confirmed based upon current practices.
