This review is from: Our Anglican Heritage (Paperback)

This book attempts to give a history of the Anglican Church, which he did. However,the bias shows in a very pro protestant view of Henry VIII and Elizabeth versus Mary Tudor. Those who died under the reigns of Henry and Elizabeth were traitors and dissidents whereas those who died during the reign of Queen Mary were "good and holy Christians." We know that the Tudors all killed their political and religious enemies when expedient. A history should be as objective as possible and not show bias toward one group or another.
