The Great Apostasy

By James E. Talmage

Synopsis: A historical account of how the truth of the Gospel in the Meridian of Time was perverted shortly after the death of Jesus' Apostles.

Strong Points: This book gives in a very straight-forward yet accurate way a history of how the Great Apostasy occurred. It has many interesting facts in it yet is not so in-depth as to lose the reader.

Weak Points: The paragraphs in the book are numbered, which I thought was a strange way to lay out a book of this type. Also, naturally since it was published in 1909, there has been much more relevant research in this area which is not included in the book.

Interesting: 4/5

Must Read: 3/5

Overall: 4.1/5
