This is a general overview of the topic and hence a great introduction. This is a new field, and Dr. Metzler thoroughly introduces the historiography of the subject thus far, and the great gaps in the research that remain to be filled. The book is organized well, but her reliance on/treatment of hagiography as a legitimate source of historical reality is a bit overconfident.
