Abstract

The work of William Tyndale, it is now becoming clear, was of towering importance not just in the religious life of England in the sixteenth century, but across the world for the last five hundred years. In September 1994, at the quincentenary of his death, my biography of him came from Yale University Press. It has been widely noticed.
