		<description><![CDATA[This book purports to be an overview of John Calvin&#8217;s life from a fresh perspective, taking into account Calvin&#8217;s historical and theological influence on the modern world. Unfortunately, the book lives up to neither expectation. I&#8217;m working on finding a good in-depth Calvin biography. This is the worst sample I&#8217;ve found. The good: Good explanation [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This book was an excellent read. It was a detailed account of the second war between the Dutch settlers of South Africa, called Boers (meaning farmers), and the English from 1899-1902. The war came about as a result of the British denying the sovereignty of two independent Boer Republics; the Transvaal &#038; the Orange Free [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Can man travel through time? As cool as that sounds, I doubt it could be possible. I doubt it from a philosophical point of view: if I could travel in time, why couldn’t I change history? Crichton argues that no significant changes can be introduced, but his explanation falls a bit flat. Science teaches us [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This book makes it clear that Lincoln was not what contemporary historians claim he was, in that he was a racist, a tyrant, and a facilitator if not generator of mass genocide. I will not go into the proof, as I’m simply reviewing this book. Feel free to leave a comment. Positive: In a very [...]]]></description>

We meet our hero, Hector Campbell, in 1639, the war has already been raging for twenty-some-odd years by that time. Found by General Turrene [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Christ in the Camp deals with revivals in the Army of Northern Virginia. It describes the work of the Lord in great detail as the author drew not only from his own experiences as a chaplain, but also from letters he received from other chaplains. The grace of God is very evident in this writing. [...]]]></description>

Also, the point of the assignment was to learn as much as I could from skimming/reading really fast, so portions of the book were skimmed over.
