A Nearly Infallible History of the Reformation by Nick Page
500 years on from the Reformation, Nick Page distils what we really need to know about Luther, Calvin and all those other serious religious types in his usual irreverent but informative style.
Nick page is one of the most talented actors, writers and speakers I have been fortunate enough to encounter during the last thirty yearsGenuinely funny in his humour, and seriously interesting in his thoughtful, well-researched teaching, Nick is brilliantly versatile. I wish I had half of his talent, but I guess he's just too mean to share it with me. * Adrian Plass *
Page writes in a manner which shines light into the darker corners of history and with a style which keeps the reader's attention. * Methodist Recorder *
Composed of a plethora of facts... His explanation of what indulgences are is particularly helpful. * The Reformation Room Blog *
Nick Page seeks in this book to clear up some of the myths, stories and notions which grew up around the whole event... With great insight, detail and leaving no stone unturned, Page will bring a new understanding to the Reformation whether you like it or not. * Presbyterian Herald *
A witty and informative book... Page also breaks down various complex and quite serious areas of the Christian faith and puts them together again in a simpler, jigsaw version of the Reformation... Page finds a balance between funny and fact, making the Reformation of the 16th century more appealing to today's modern Christian. * Idea Magazine *
It's an entertaining and informative read. Don't miss is, not least for the Top Reformers cards. * Woman Alive *
Would I recommend this book as a good read? YES! * Christian Librarian Magazine *
