This book, "Out of Captivity," reflects a detailed and well-researched look at the stirrings of men and women in Europe and England who sought religious freedom. As a documentary filmmaker, I have been interested in the detail and insight of this story. It has helped me on two different films that I have produced for PBS Television... Lee Groberg, Groberg Communications. In this book Charles W. Allen takes the reader from the Apostasy after the apostles of Jesus Christ were killed to the British Isles to America, connecting the dots as he goes. Who were the people who populated Great Britain? Who were the Puritans and Pilgrims who set sail into the unknown and wild lands of America, seeking religious freedom? This book is jam-packed with unknown and little-known true stories of Christians who held their beliefs in Christ and a desire to do His will above their own comforts. For example: Has the reader heard of Sempringham, England? In the stone chapel at this now vanished village, the beginnings of the Massachusetts Bay Company came together as a small group of Puritans met and discussed their dreams. Have you heard of the Roman missionary, Paulinus, and his missionary efforts among the pagan peoples of England? Fascinating reading. Includes color pictures and maps.
