In The Reformation: Faith and Flames, Andrew Atherstone traces the dramatically compelling story from the Renaissance to the seventeenth-century wars of religion. Focusing on the key personalities and events, he explains the often complex ideas that were at stake - and the political as well as religious issues involved. This is a lucid, authoritative account of a period that changed the face of Europe forever. The great figures, Luther and Calvin especially - are brought vividly to life in an accessible, lively and engaging overview of this critical period.

Thoroughly researched and well-informed... this is a book as lively as it is learned." -- Church Times
