BOOK REVIEWS: The Online Book Club grants Know Islam, Love Muslims its highest rating: 4 out of 4 stars. Other reviews: (Last names of the following reviewers are withheld for their personal safety:) Know Islam, Love Muslims is not a discriminatory or inflammatory book tainted with Mr. Blanton’s opinions. It is a book that serves to challenge a reader’s current understanding of Islam. In a time when being “politically correct” trumps “truth and transparency, Mr. Blanton is to be commended on his courageous stance in presenting the facts. Nice wake-up call Mr. Blanton.” (Dr. Michael S). “Extremely well documented and written; the facts slam into readers like bullets” (Carolyn R). “A thought-provoking, I-never-knew-that experience. I heartily recommend this informative volume in its pursuit of truth about the Muslim religion” (Burton H).  “An interesting, informative read, indeed” (Thomas F).
