Disappointment,
By Charles F. Greene "Charlie Green" (Plaistow, New Hampshire United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Telling the Churches' Stories: Ecumenical Perspectives on Writing Christian History (Paperback)
My experience with Amazon on this purchase is what I have come to expect. Every step was in the ordering and receiving the product was exceptional. The product however was not really what I was looking for. Its informative but not quite what I expected.Educational
