The Great Heresies by Hilaire Belloc
5.0
Twice: as soon as I had finished I started again.
History just how I like it: important, familiar yet new, openly opinionated.
Virtually every sentence was interesting, but especially intriguing were:
* Islam as a heresy, not as a new religion
* Today's disbelief, rejection, as a heresy
* The continuing anti-joy purity of successive heresies
* The development of the Protestant split from a series of other problems - it was nearly impossible in isolation.
