I have read it about three times and really enjoyed it, although their treatment of Archbishop Auxentius and the Holy Transfi. Monastery is very biased. However, their early history of the movement is quite good. Add in the fact that it is only about 12 dollars, I'd say it's a good buy. I would supplement it with "The Old Calendar Orthodox Church of Greece" or whatever it is called by the Etna group (TOC). I wish that OrthodoxyorDeath's Synod had a book in English. I believe they have several in Greek. Maybe he could list their titles and where one can purchase them for those of us who speak Greek or are learning it?

I am in the 2nd chapter of this book its really good. That "patriarch" meletios was a horriable person. What book where you talking about by the etna group?

I think it is called the "Old Calendar Orthodox Church of Greece." It is available from the Center for Traditionalist Orthodox Studies. Type that into google and get the website; they have an online catalogue.

They recently released a history of the TOC of Romania and it is quite amazing.
