Reviews for The European Reformations Sourcebook

?The expansion of sources and subjects in the second edition of this volume enhances its value and usefulness as an overview of the Reformation movements in sixteenth-century Europe. With a judicious eye for precisely the telling moments in the original works of the reformers in their cultural context, and with sensitivity to historiographical issues currently under discussion, Lindberg makes a large number of shorter citations effectively lead students into key ideas and events in the unfolding of the Protestant and Catholic Reformations.?
