A NEARLY INFALLIBLE HISTORY
OF THE REFORMATION
NICK PAGE
To mark the 500th Anniversary of the Reformation prolific author, speaker
and applied ranter Nick Page has written a book on the subject.
Nick brings his skills as an unlicensed historian to bear on this key period
in European (and world) history in order to uncover everything you need to
know about the Reformation - with a fair few bits you never wanted to know
thrown in for good measure.
In-depth research, historical analysis and cutting-edge guesswork
combine to scintillating effect in this fast-moving examination of the strange
and wonderful whirlwind that was church life in late medieval Europe.
