Summary: What Did Those Reformers Think?
Comment: If our reviewer from North Carolina thinks the Protestant Reformers would have been happy with the English "mass" of Henry VIII, he (or she) has no understanding of history. However, it certainly is true that the work is a beautiful example of the English language of that period, a valuable tool for scholars, and a delightful thing for both scholars and laymen, even today. -----Joe from Ohio

Summary: A Neat Piece of History
Comment: The Church of England's first duty as an established church was to create a prayer book. Separating from the Roman Catholic church meant Mass and other services in English, not Latin. This created the need for a book from which educated people could follow the order of Mass. Be edict of Queen Elizabeth, a guidebook to Mass and the Administration of the Sacraments according to the church of England was created. This was the product of that edict. The Elizabethan language is absolutely beautiful. Imagine a living piece of testament to the protestant reformation right there beside you. A great guide for daily prayer or a unique addition to any church service. I loved it, and the large print was especially easy to read!
