Martin Luther: The Man Who Rediscovered God and Changed the World

On All Hallow's Eve in 1517, a young monk named Martin Luther posted a document he hoped would spark an academic debate. Instead, it ignited a conflagration. Five hundred years after Luther's now famous Ninety-five These appeared, Eric Metaxas paints a startling portrait of the wild figure whose adamantine faith cracked the edifice of Western Christendom and dragged medieval Europe into the future.

Written in riveting prose and impeccably researched, Martin Luther tells the searing tale of a humble man whose monumental faith and courage gave birth to the ideals of liberty, equality, and individualism that today lie at the heart of all modern life.
