Although some aspects of pre-Roman and pre-Christian beliefs remain shrouded in mystery; the author of this volume contends that neither the Roman invasion of Britain nor the coming of Christianity eliminated pagan religious practice. This is a piece of historical and archaeological reconstruction.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Should be required reading for every American....By Doc Bill...especially if they are elected officials. There was considerable controversy that surrounded the Constitution; and the Federalists and Anti-Federalists went at it hammer and tongs in the social media of the day--letters; newspapers and broadsheets.Pity most Americans are completely ignorant of the issues that are discussed in this book; especially our elected and appointed Leaders in Washington (based on what they say and do; not what they claim).1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Every American needs to read this.By MikeinazMoreover it should be mandatory study in the later years of school. This is the owners manual for a free nation. In segments of a few pages each and using the vernacular and idiom of the day it is easy to picture in your mind how men of intelligence and concern for the future worried every turn of phrase or idea proposed by this nations framing documents.The books themselves are beautifully bound. The paper is light yet rugged and the print is easier on the eyes than it first seemed it would be. Interestingly they also have a small durable ribbon bound into the binding with which to keep your place. The Appendix contains text of the Declaration of Independence; The Articles of Confederation and The Constitution with Amendments. There are also biographical notes so you have some idea of the nature of these people; and a concise timeline of what occurred when and where.I highly recommend both books part one and part two.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. It's all here!By ricoIt's all here! Collected into 2 neat little volumes! This is part 2. Such passion ; consideration ; fuel debate was involved in The Debate Over The Constitution. Statesmen sough our security ; individuals sought their liberties ; enemies sought disent and fracture to our ruin! The very issues of Liberty were in their hands! Review it all! Did we decide right?
