Tyndale


William Tyndale may not be a household name, but his work to translate the Bible from Latin into English formed the basis of the King James Bible, which recently celebrated its 500th anniversery. This biography also provideS historical background for the period, almost to the point of being a dual biography for Tyndale and his foe Thomas More.
With the historical background and somewhat explict quotes, this book is not meant for young children, but is intriguing for those responsible enough to handle it.
3/5
