5.0 out of 5 stars Book of Hymns - Soul Food AND Respectable Scholarship, December 29, 2000
This review is from: The Book of Hymns (Hardcover)
I ordered Book of Hymns as a Christmas gift for my wife -- hoping against hope that it would be a cut above the usual hymn history pablum. I was not disappointed. I couldn't put the book down! The authors have really done their homework, combining their own devotional thoughts with details from the hymnwriters' personal lives. Now it's on sale -- and I'm ordering two more! Highly recommended. Johnny Long Presbyterian Church in America World Harvest Mission ("The Sonship People") Africa Renewal Team Nairobi, Kenya East Africa

1.0 out of 5 stars Not one note of music, January 12, 2005
This review is from: The Book of Hymns (Hardcover)
The author states: "I am very conscious that in presenting the words of hymns without the tunes that are their essential accompaniments, this book does not do full justice to its subject." I agree. Mr. Bennett goes on to encourage readers to sing the melodies as they remember them, or failing that, to make something up! How sad.
