Last Words of an Advocate of Pure Evangelical Religion (1856) Book

William A Young obviously has an excellent command of the subject of World Religions, but he is a poor writer. There are numerous instances of bad grammar and punctuation, the text does not flow, and he inserts exclamation points where exclamation points clearly did not belong. In his writing, he focuses on giving information, but he does not seem to care whether the information is accessible or not. It's incredibly dry and not very readable.
That being said, there is a wealth of valuable information in this book. I think it gives fair and accurate descriptions of the histories, values, and practices of the world's major religions. I learned a lot from this book, but it was hard work.
