However, there are some issues here. This is a short book that for once I wanted to be longer—Makowski has a bit of a tendency to quote at some length from sources (primary or secondary) and let them stand without much by way of interrogation. I wanted more by way of analysis, especially as to what, if anything, it means that "apostasy" could be deployed as such a big umbrella term in the Middle Ages. As for more minor quibbles, I wished for more consistent grounding in time and place—we're not always told when a particular incident occurred, even to the century—and for better proofreading. (Among various dropped prepositions and inconsistently spelled names, we're told about the nuns praying in the church "quire"—c'mon, Boydell and Brewer!) ( )
