A review we received:
I currently work in the Fuller Seminary Library . . .Several years back, as I was engaging in doctoral coursework, I consulted the chapters on Ellis, Elisha and John Callender (Vols. 1-2) and they aroused in me a deeper interest in the topic, leading to my dissertation. All that to say, this series has been invaluable for students of Baptist history, in that the different chapters definitely whet the appetite for those interested in deeper study.
