It is bolstered by parallel lives of similarly situated intellectuals from Libya and Turkey; one Christian and one Christian. Perhaps the most valuable part of the book is the discussion of the heresy that consumed nine years of Augustine's life.(My old brain is not coming up with the name at this point).2 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy John E. BanksThis is the best book on Augustin I've found. I especially like the account of Augustine's conversion.
