"An accessible account of Luther, his life, thoughts, writings and all that surrounded him. Tomlin's writing is readable and informative... For most people, this packed-full, not so little, littlebook will be just enough for them to feel that they now "get" Martin Luther." - Church of England Newspaper One of the towering characters of the Reformation, Martin Luther's actions, beliefs and writings have had an incalculable effect on the lives of millions of people. In this engaging book, Graham Tomlin paints a vivid picture of Luther's life, from his early struggles with faith to his emergence as the leading figure in the Reformation. The man revealed here is obstinate, sensitive, blunt and determined - willing to risk all for his convictions. From Booklist The countless books that have been published about Martin Luther attest to his position as one of the most influential figures in Western history. But Tomlin?s short work (originally published in 2002) actually carves out a niche for itself. Those seeking a brief introduction to Luther?s life, the political times in which he lived, or the theological and philosophical milieu in which his own thought developed will be well served by Tomlin?s accessible and sympathetic presentation, one in which the human side of Luther is never lost. Tomlin tells the story of an ordinary man, awash in spiritual struggles, who demonstrates throughout his life not only the courage of his convictions but also the frequent inability to resist the temptation to ridicule his opponents. Tomlin?s approach is balanced. He presents Luther?s genius alongside his flaws in the context of the political power structures of his day, and he succeeds in depicting not just a grand historical figure but an authentically human person. --Christopher McConnell Review "Tomlin's writing is readable and informative . . . . For most people, this packed-full, not so little, little book will be just enough for them to feel that they now 'get' Martin Luther."  -Church of England Newspaper"Those seeking a brief introduction to Luther?s life, the political times in which he lived, or the theological and philosophical milieu in which his own thought developed will be well served by Tomlin?s accessible and sympathetic presentation, one in which the human side of Luther is never lost." - Booklist Online About the Author Graham Tomlin is Dean of St Mellitus College, London.
