Description
Summary:Peter Marshall's substantive tome Heretics and Believers, which received the Wolfson Prize in 2018, is the product of many decades of study. Christianities," covers the disparate decisions, and subsequent reversals, retrievals, and reinventions that defined Christianity in late-Henrician, Edwardian, and Marian England. Readers familiar with major studies on the English Reformation over the last few decades will find points of contrast between Marshall and other authors, but because his study is aimed at a general readership, it spends little time discussing historiographical details.
