3.0

An excellent book of information, if not as well written as one would have hoped. The introduction to Machen's life as well as the feeling of the modernist controversy of the 20s is excellent, and Hart's astute observations on Machen's odd role as enemy and friend of both moderns and fundamentalists are brilliant. However, the book is weighed down by Hart's dense writing style and poor organization at points. Still, a very worthwhile read.
