First sentence: Martin Luther was not the first theologian to criticize the Church of Rome, but he launched a relentless attack on the ethics and consciences of Christians with such fervor and confidence that he changed Christian religious practices forever.
Description: Although Luther published a series of brilliant treatises in 1520, they make fairly heavy reading for the layperson. This volume is a selection of recollections, by friends and family, of things Luther said informally. As a result it is an easily accessible and personal account of his feelings, idea, and even his humor.
