Builders of Annapolis, July 7, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Builders of Annapolis: Enterprise and Politics in a Colonial Capital (Paperback)
This book was extremely disappointing to me. I found so many incorrect statements that I wonder about the parts with which I am not familiar. Maryland history is of great interest to me, therefore I was anxious to read Builders of Annapolis. In the very beginning of the book it is written that settlers of Maryland were mostly Catholic. It takes very little research to determine that is an incorrect statement. The errors went on from there -- too numerous to enumerate. The author had such an interesting idea for writing about some of the early Annapolitians. Why didn't he do a better job with his research? I am sorry I bought this book.

The most carelessly researched books I have ever read. Some mistakes were insignificant and others were inexcusable.
