-Remembering the Reformation is a thoughtful and rewarding book. At one level, it tells the story of how successive generations have recast that pivotal event according to the changing needs and obsessions of each new era. Through the process, though, we also learn much about the changing role of religion in Western society, and (centrally) about the nature of Protestantism itself. As we commemorate the 500th anniversary of Luther's Reformation, it will be very useful to have this elegant and well-written historical guide to hand.---Philip Jenkins, Distinguished Professor of History, Baylor University -An excellent work of historical scholarship...This book is valuable for specialists interested in the historical legacy of Protestantism.---CHOICE Remembering the Reformation is a thoughtful and rewarding book.
