The Reformation: A History Audiobook

" Humorous (to some extent). Erudite. A well-written survey of the Reformation for those who, like me, have no time to read through the details of the historical timeline. I'm not a fan of collecting names of bishops, kings, and popes so this book wasn't hard to chew, swallow, and digest. "

" I don't think that am I smart enough for this book. "

" Collinson's history of The Reformation is the first I read, he is greatly conciseness of both thought and event. I was trying to get as much early information on dates and characters before diving into a much longer book. "

" Good intro. to the Reformation, especially the historical happenings. However, I would look to other sources for a more detailed look at the theology of Luther and Calvin. For an accessible guide to Luther's thinking, listen to Phillip Cary's lectures on Luther: Gospel, Law, Reformation. "

" Somewhat detailed in areas but overall it was helpful in helping to understand the Reformation. "

" lots of great content about Luther and Calvin, but kind of a dry read "

" Good book for a serious distraction. Probably tried to accomplish too much for such a brief project. "

" A very good overview of the first few hundred years surrounding the Reformation. Lots of names and facts, but generally a compelling read for those interested in the topic "
