Author Description

Anyone who has followed the roller coaster-like saga of PTL will want to read this absorbing inside story. Albert, a law professor and trial attorney, has investigated the Bakker/PTL story extensively and crafts a balanced story, guiding his readers through Bakker's rise from obscurity to his heyday hosting "The PTL Club". Albert contends that although Bakker's stewardship of PTL was surely careless, serious doubt remains whether or not he ever intended to defraud contributors. 15 photos.
