Reviews

'In concentrating on St. Germain and Hooker, Eppley thus focuses on a distinctive feature of the English constitution, and explains, in great detail and with exemplary learning, how God was captured for the national church.' Archiv fA1/4r Reformationsgeschichte 'Eppley has made a valuable contribution to the field by expanding the parameters of texts we might study to better understand the responses of the English people to the Reformation.' Renaissance Quarterly 'With this book, Daniel Eppley provides a well-researched and thought-provoking sapling for the continuously growing forest of English Reformation studies.' Journal of British Studies 'This is very serious and professional work, based upon long and deep meditation on the texts and it taught me a great deal about authors and issues I know well.' Ethan H. Shagan, University of California, Berkeley, in Sixteenth Century Journal '[Eppley] has succeeded in shedding considerable light on the intersection of Tudor religious and political thought. This book deserves the attention of scholars with a variety of interests ranging from the historical and theological to the legal, political, and constitutional.' Religious Studies Review '... Eppley's study makes valuable contributions and raises important questions about the consequences of the English Reformation for ideas about authority, obedience, and truth.' The Historian
