'Students will find this book of great help...What students will find particularly valuable is the full discussion of current historiography, the strong sense of what the evidence might or might not indicate about people's motivations, and a clear overall theme. And although Marsh is generous in the attribution of ideas to other historians, he provides a distinctive synthesis of his own, from which researchers, as well as students, will profit.' - Andrew Brown, History 'His book is a masterly guide to the tortuous process by which the English learned to live with Protestantism - and even to love it - while subtly turning it to their own purposes.' - Arnold Hunt, Church Times 'The book abounds with suggestive insights and questions...This is a textbook that does not lean on other historians; it takes nothing on trust.' - R.C. Richardson, Times Higher Education Supplement
