With sound historical scholarship and penetrating insight, Roland

Bainton examines Luther’s widespread influence. He re-creates the

spiritual setting of the sixteenth century, showing Luther’s place

within it and influence upon it. Richly illustrated with more than

100 woodcuts and engravings from Luther’s own time, Here I Stand

dramatically brings to life Martin Luther, the great Reformer.

A specialist in Reformation history, Roland H. Bainton was for

forty-two years Titus Street Professor of Ecclesiastical History at

Yale, and he continued his writing well into his twenty years of

retirement. Bainton wore his scholarship lightly and had a lively,

readable style. His most popular book was Here I Stand: A Life of

Martin Luther (1950), which sold more than a million copies.

real people whose lives have been touched and transformed by God,

and who in turn have touched others with God’s love. Each story

has been carefully selected, gently edited if necessary, and freshly

typeset, making every account—be it ancient or contemporary—a

compelling read. Great lives reaching across the ages to touch lives

today, encouraging, challenging, and inspiring.
