Although the young Edward VI's death in 1553 led to resounding defeat for his
Protestant allies, his reign has a significance out of all proportion to its
brief six-year span. For during its course England's rulers let loose an
explosive form of Christianity within the realm. In this lavishly illustrated
book, MacCulloch underlines the significance of Edward's turbulent and neglected
reign. As well as the young king's life and beliefs he takes a fresh look at the
ruthless politicians who jostled for position around him and explores the
strange afterlife of Edward's attempt at the religious transformation of his
kingdom. In this MacCulloch traces a connection through the civil wars of the
17th century up to the present day.
