Great book,

This review is from: Christianity in Latin America: A History (Paperback)
This was a great book and quite easy to read. The first half of the book deals with Christianity coming to Latin America and the Roman Church. While this part was interesting and has been covered by many people before so there was not that much new information although worth reading all the same. The second half dealt mostly with Protestantism and a very good chapter on Pentecostalism. This was very enlightening. The only downside about the book was that this second half was not longer with more information especially about the last 10 years or so (as this book was only published a couple of months ago). Apart from this it was a great read for anyone interested in Christian history or interested in global christianity from a non-European point of view.

I could not believe it when I found my order outside of my mail box. Thank goodness I came back home early and I could pick it up from the floor before somebody else founded.
I am very disapointed about this delivery.
