The British Josiah: Edward VI, the Most Godly King of England is an exciting biography of the little-known heir of King Henry VIII of England. Edward became king, changed the course of a nation, and left a lasting impact on Christendom by laying the foundations for the Protestant Reformation in England.
Review:
"Edward laid the foundation of the Reformation in England. His father had to a great extent broken down the old religion. It was left to Edward, a gracious, earnest, Spirit-filled little Christian, imbued with a great love of Scripture to begin to build up true religion again, ably assisted by men like Cranmer and Latimer.
"As a bonus, this volume includes Edward's rare Treatise Against the Primacy of the Pope, full of arguments which are as relevant now as they were then. It is worth possessing the book for this reason alone.
"The British Josiah is written by a converted Catholic and dedicated to Roman Catholics. The cover is attractive and large print, on good paper. We heartily recommend this low priced, fascinating little history." (Partial quotation from a review in the British Church Newspaper.)
