Excellent historical account, although hairsplitting toward the end
I've been surrounded by Brethren all my life, so the first third of the book was a breeze describing Brethren origins and stand apart doctrine...then it slowed down into every little thing the Brethren were splitting hairs over at the turn of the 20th Century, very informative, but not nearly as exciting.
