This book is full of facts I cannot find in the standard texts on Martin Luther. It was published in 1889, and does not lay out the facts like Philip Schaff of the same period. It is full of the author's personal critiques, so much so that I think that if the book came out today, it would be seen as a "revisionist" approach to the familiar textbooks.

Martin Luther was not the main menu item at the Diet of Worms, shifted from Augsburg.. It was Charles V's first meeting for deliberative and executive purposes with his subjects. Many questions cried out loud for settlement. There was the old difficulty of a "Reichsregiment" - an administrative body which in the absence of the emperor should take charge of the affairs of the empire. The Supreme Court of Justice, which should do right between prince and prince and settle all appeals from inferior tribunals still had to be constituted. And other things on the agenda.

The Drummer of Nicklashaussen, Hans Boheims's story was recounted in a concise form (55)

The account on Geiler von Kaisersberg (1445-1510) was far more illuminating than in David C Steimetz's Reformers in the Wings: from Geiler Kaisersberg to Theodore Beza.

The account of von Reuchlin and Pfefferkorn was so entertaining that I will hesitate to read another account elsewhere.

Martin Luther might have a girl friend Frau Schwalbe (131), and as for the nailing or mailing of the theses, there is a reference for "Luther, accompanied by John Agricola, on the afternoon of the 31st October 1517, and nailed to the door his Ninety-five Theses." (213)

This book leaves no name of even minor players left out. It is full of details. We meet people like Dr Usingen, Justus Menius, Henning Gode, John Reincke, Philip von Feilitsch, Clara Pirkheimer (not Caritas), Heironymous Ebner. Simon Pistoris, Philip von Daun: everybody worth mentioning has a name. On his conversion, Luther was probably leaving Erfurt to avoid an epidemic, after a visit to his parents. Near a village of Stotterheim, he was overtaken by a violent thunderstorm. Melanchthon and Malthesius' take on this was recorded. Luther says he repented of the vow.

There is quite a bit on Erasmus, von Sickengen and Ulrich von Hutten.

All references are at the bottom of the page, so I do not have to flip to the back of the book.

In 1889, the authors had very good narrative writing style. There are very few generalisations. Some events were not emphasised, like the Heidelberg disputation. But whatever that was written was filled with detail, not like the style of modern texts.

A confession I only read the sample. The sample I read shows through great research into the religious and political climare of pre Reformation Germany. My critque is that edition has numerous spelling and transfer errors. For example "Rome" is transfered as "Eome", the German umlaut "u" is transfered "ii" , so "Nueremberg" reads as "Niiremberg"; finally the the footnotes and inline citations which are properly placed in the print edition, in the edition the citations are placed that the interrupt sentences
