History & Biography

“With admirable clarity, Caroline Litzenberger strips away the myths and sets out what the English Reformation was really about. Most significantly, she shows that lay women and men, not just the clergy and theologians, played central roles in shaping Anglicanism from the start. This is the ideal introduction for general readers, and especially for American Episcopalians seeking to understand the roots of their church.”
