“MacCulloch's enviable ease in unraveling complex theological and political positions . . . makes this a formidable achievement. A dramatic period of English history will never look quite the same again.”
“This is Reformation history as it should be written, learned, argumentative, and . . . never for a moment dull.”
“Award-winning author MacCulloch has written an interesting and informative study . . . [an] enjoyable and very readable book.”
"This is Reformation history as it should be written, not least because it resembles its subject matter: learned, argumentative, and, even when mistaken, never dull."—Eamon Duffy, author of The Stripping of the Altars: Traditional Religion in England, 1400-1580
