I like some of Edmund Morgan's historical material, but this book was like someone pulled his MOST opinionated pieces of historical writings and put them in this book.

I couldn't finish it. It was wayyyy too much of Morgan's opinions about who believed what and why and his own personal interpretations of their thoughts and actions.

I would barely give this book any decent review.
