Martin Luther

Over all, it was an informative and enjoyable read. However, I could have done without some of what seemed overly flowery and awkwardly forced descriptive verbiage. Also the last few paragraphs got a bit to politically preachy (with the author speaking from a modern conservative standpoint) for my liking. Other reviews want to give the impression that this is the active tone throughout the entire book, but that is simply untrue.

Over all I would recommend this book to others. This book however, will by its subject matter not be appealing to most readers. Not many find the lives of a 16th century clergyman interesting enough to commit to a 700+ page read.
