While I found the book as a whole interesting, there were a few times (especially when she talks about the more modern works) that I felt her appropriation of the work to help further her theme of prayer was a little thin. Franklin’s Winged Earth is a wonderful piece, but it’s a stretch to say it’s a work brimming with religiosity. Her need to relate everything back to God gets cumbersome sometimes. But, that said, you can definitely tell that she is a learned and deeply motivated writer with a love for the subject. If nothing else, the works will get you better acquainted with the lesser masters of the Renaissance.
