The Renaissance and Reformation Movements is a panoramic two volume history of the pulsating politico-ecclesiastical, intellectual, and cultural life of the two centuries preceding the 16th century Reformation. This first volume synthesizes an otherwise overwhelming body of information into an engaging and readable narrative. The author captures the ferment and spirit of this age, and in so doing he affords one an ideal vantage point from which to view the diverse currents of this extraordinary period.
