Emblem of Faith Untouched: A Short Life of Thomas Cranmer (Library of Religious Biography)

Â
Relates one of the most remarkable lives in the tumultuous English Reformation

Thomas Cranmer (1489â€“1556) was the first Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, the author of the Book of Common Prayer, and a central figure in the English Protestant Reformation. Few theologians have led such an eventful life: Cranmer helped Henry VIII break with the pope, pressed his vision of the Reformation through the reign of Edward VI, was forced to recant under Queen Mary, and then dramatically withdrew his recantations before being burned alive.

This lively biography by Leslie Williams narrates Cranmer's life from the beginning, through his education and history with the monarchy, to his ecclesiastical trials and eventual martyrdom. Williams portrays Cranmer's ongoing struggle to reconcile his two central loyaltiesâ€”allegiance to the crown and fidelity to the Reformation faithâ€”as she tells his fascinating life story.
