the last half of the book was much better than the first half although if one was looking for any salacious details on anyone, you won't find it here.
The book ended up being (for me anyway) somewhat a history of the fundamentalist movements in the US, both past and present.
It did give good insight into how they view the interconnections of religion and politics among other subjects.
If I were to recommend it to anyone, yes. It is an overall good read but not a must read.
