J.H. MERLE D'AUBIGNE

FEATURES FREE CD-ROM with complete image collection and searchable text!

Originally published in 1872, by G.P. Putnam & Sons in New York, this beautiful 800-page edition features 20 books, twelve steel engravings, and 200 wood illustrations including portraits of the most eminent Reformers.

When the idea of writing this historical account first occurred to D'Aubigne, he stated that he "was young, and felt strongly impelled to give a narrative of the wonderful works that God had wrought for Christendom in the Sixteenth Century." He earnestly desired that it should glorify God and he "felt that the Holy Spirit, which then worked in so many hearts, might again manifest His power, and bring to God some souls as yet unacquainted with His saving strength."

In addition to the spiritual significance of his work, D'Aubigne was deeply concerned about historical accuracy. He researched both public and private libraries and deciphered many manuscripts of the Sixteenth Century; many of which were unknown until he made use of them.

The 'History of the Reformation' is an essential volume in the Christian's library because it provides the historical detail and reflects the living power of the doctrines of the Reformation like no other work in history.

The author found pleasure in telling the story of the acts of the Reformers; but he wanted this monumental work to be remembered in the words of John Calvin,

"Let us ascribe honor to those men who have excelled in the fear of God; but on condition that God should remain above all, and that Christ should triumph."
