It especially highlights the role of Archbishop Thomas Cranmer, whose influence and theoretical contributions were key to the Reformation's success. The author traces the establishment of The Church of England, exploring the various attitudes of its leaders and the ideological push and pull between Catholicism, Protestantism, and Puritanism which shaped its ultimate character. This book offers a balanced view of the complexities of a major religious and political upheaval whose consequences continue to shape modern society.
