Rebel in the Ranks: Martin Luther, the Reformation, and the Conflicts That Continue to Shape Our World

With the scholarship of a world-class historian and the keen eye of a biographer, University of Notre Dame professor Brad Gregory paints an in-depth portrait of Martin Luther as a reluctant rebel in the ranks and the Reformation as a movement largely beyond his control. Gregory explains in vivid detail how events that transpired five centuries ago gave shape to the modern world and how the unintended and unforeseen consequences of the Reformation continue to influence us today.
