Peter G. Wallace interweaves the Reformation into the transformations of political institutions, socioeconomic structures, gender relations, and cultural values in early modern Europe. In approaching the European Reformation as a long-term process, Wallace argues that the classic sixteenth-century religious struggles with the resolutions proposed by reformers such as Luther, were not fully realized for most Christians until the early eighteenth century.

3.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent source of information if dull in places,
By Carl (U.K.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Long European Reformation: Religion, Political Conflict and the Search for Conformity, 1350-1750 (European History in Perspective) (Paperback)
Clearly the author is an expert in his field and this is an excellent source of information on the European Reformantion. However I found it extremely difficult to read in places and on the whole a pretty dull book.
If you are interested in the European reformation than this is definitely the book for you however if you have only a glancing interest in this time period or the reformation I don't think you would enjoy this work at all.
