Reviews
"We have here a very useful reader on the radical wing of the Protestant Reformation of the early sixteenth century....After a compact but informed introduction, a six-page chronology, and a concise bibliographical note, Professor Baylor presents in fresh translation thirteen key documents illustrating core concerns of the radicals." Donald F. Durnbaugh, Utopian Studies
