Author Description

The Protestant Reformation of the Sixteenth Century was the beginning of a major epoch in human history. What began in the hearts and minds of the reformers grew into a movement that not only affected religious life in Europe, but that also changed the face of social, political, and economic institutions as well. Like every other great historical movement, the Reformation sprang from the obscure sources in the remote past, and gathered strength from innumerable tributaries, until at last it became a mighty flood whose onward flow was irresitible. Dubb's work THE LEADERS OF THE REFORMATION provides a detailed account of the men whose influence contributed to changing the course of history and Western thought.
