Prominent Luther scholars Philip and Peter Krey offer an extensive introduction to this aspect of Luthers work along with brief introductions to each of Luthers texts. For Catholics and Protestants alike who are interested in coming to know this little known and genuinely appealing side of Martin Luther, The Catholic Luther is an indispensable resource.|The Catholic Luther presents seven writings by Martin Luther that demonstrate his deep Catholicity including the classic The Magnificat, Put into German and Explained capturing the essence of his Catholic devotion.
