Both teachers and students will find many reasons to like this new
textbook from the Greenwood series….This book is to be recommended
for many reasons apart from the 135 densely packed pages of regular
text. The biographies, primary documents, glossary, and annotated
bibliography of printed and electronic resources will doubtless
prove useful to students looking to write term papers, and the
lively writing style will engage even the most uninterested
student….The Reformation Era will certainly stimulate young readers
and encourage scholars to bring not only fresh historiographical
perspectives to the classroom, but also use innovative presentation
and media.
