As a history graduate and an attorney, I was taken aback by the tone of this book. There are many more astute books about Islam that both reveal and help to understand that faith and how it is lived. This book loses credibility in its internal contradictory statements, its lack of subjectivity, and becomes a screed against Islam. That is, a screed against its narrow view of Islam.
I do not recommend this book. There are much better history and apolitical ones out there.
This book is spot-on accurate with its information and helpful tips on sharing the Gospel with others. It has valuable points to consider, and it’s written in an understandable way.
