Morning Star of the Reformation
by Andy Thomson Author
The scene is Oxford University in medieval England, a place of high culture, intellectual activity--and danger, at least for reformer John Wycliffe, who challenges the formidable power of the Roman Catholic Church. In the midst of riots, plague, and persecution, Wycliffe risks his life to translate the Bible into English and paves the way for the Reformation.
