Summary: Much needed, well researched, a little boring
Comment: Closer to 3.5 stars.

To learn that the English Reformation had its own history rather than one piggybacking off of that of Germany and France is invaluable. The examination of characters such as Wycliffe, the Lollards, and other precursors to the Reformation was great.

I understand that the type of research Dickens did concerning land ownership, wills, etc. is not exactly stimulating to read about, but I wish he would have written in a slightly more enjoyable manner.

Rating: 4
Summary: My Favourite Course Book
Comment: Although this was not one of my tutor's recommended "books to buy" I have bought it anyhow. Although Dickens' descriptions of The English Reformation are, at times, simplistic, this book is invaluable for gaining an overview of what was going on during the period. I recommend it to any college student, as a springboard to more weightier tomes.
