This book is a short history of the 1st generation of the Reformation as told by the life story of a few key players. It includes chapters on St. Peter Canisius, Martin Luther, Emperor Charles V, John Calvin, Sts. Thomas more & John Fisher, Cromwell, John Knox, Mary Tudor, Mary Queen of Scots, St. Ignatius, the Popes of the time, and others. It is written from a Catholic prospective, and it is noticeable, but it does not paint all the reformers with a broad brush, but deals with their individual histories and lives and how that affected their theology.
