Here I Stand: A Life of Martin Luther Hardback

Part of the Hendrickson Classic Biographies series

Hardback

Description

With sound historical scholarship and penetrating insight, Roland Bainton examines Luther's widespread influence.

He re-creates the spiritual setting of the sixteenth century, showing Luther's place within it and influence upon it.

Richly illustrated with more than 100 woodcuts and engravings from Luther's own time, Here I Stand dramatically brings to life Martin Luther, the great Reformer.

A specialist in Reformation history, Roland H. Bainton was for forty-two years Titus Street Professor of Ecclesiastical History at Yale, and he continued his writing well into his twenty years of retirement.

Bainton wore his scholarship lightly and had a lively, readable style.

His most popular book was Here I Stand: A Life of Martin Luther (1950), which sold more than a million copies.
