Andrew Lang presents a compelling historical account of John Knox, the fiery Scottish preacher who became a central figure in the Protestant Reformation. This work examines Knoxs transformation from Catholic priest to Protestant leader, detailing his exile in Europe, influential role in establishing Presbyterianism in Scotland, and confrontations with Mary Queen of Scots. The narrative vividly portrays the turbulent religious landscape of 16th century Scotland, analyzing Knoxs theological debates, political struggles, and lasting impact on Scottish church governance. Lang explores how Knoxs writings and sermons shaped religious thought during this pivotal era, while also providing context about the broader European Reformation movement. Beyond ecclesiastical matters, the book offers insights into Scottish society during this transformative period. It examines the intersection of religion and politics, the challenges of implementing religious reforms, and Knoxs complex relationships with contemporary figures like John Calvin and Scottish nobility. This historical biography will appeal to readers interested in Reformation history and religious studies. Langs scholarly yet accessible approach makes this an essential resource for understanding one of Scotlands most influential historical figures.
