Thomas Cranmer (Bitesize Biographies)

‘Colin Hamer’s "Thomas Cranmer" presents the story of the great English reformer in an appealing manner, with an honest description of his weaknesses and failures as well as a proper emphasis on his good and endearing qualities. An additional benefit from this brief book is a readable and accurate survey of the convoluted English history during the time of Henry VIII, Edward VI and Mary Tudor. I was informed and inspired as I read of Cranmer, “the architect of the Church of England”.’ David B. Calhoun, Professor Emeritus of Church History, Covenant Theological Seminary
