The Radical Reformation, 3rd ed.

by George Huntston Williams

1995 · Penn State Press

George Williams' monumental The Radical Reformation has been an essential reference work for historians of early modern Europe, narrating in rich, interpretative detail the interconnected stories of radical groups operating at the margins of the mainline Reformation. In its scope—spanning all of Europe from Spain to Poland, from Denmark to Italy—and its erudition, The Radical Reformation is without peer. Now in paperback format, Williams' magnum opus should be considered for any university-level course on the Reformation.

Norman Vincent Peale was one of the most influential religious figures in recent American history. His 1952 book The Power of Positive Thinking remains a perennial bestseller and has affected the lives of a vast public in the United States and around the world. 25 years after its initial publication, God's Salesman reminds readers of the vital role that Peale played in the rethinking and restructuring of American religious life in the second half of the twentieth century.
