The Unquenchable Flame (Michael Reeves)


Michael Reeves delivers a succinct (200-page) overview of the Reformation in The Unquenchable Flame.  He covers the background to it, followed by treatments of major players (Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, etc.) and concludes in Britain with the Puritans.

This is a good introduction.  Quite similar in approach and scope to Stephen Nichols' work, you could read either and get the same major points.  This one is slightly longer, flows a bit better, and gives a tad more background.
