Their ideas spread surprisingly quickly into English discourse, explaining the early emergence of Reformed theology under Henry VIII. Wainwright scrutinizes the covenant thought of William Tyndale, Miles Coverdale, John Hooper, and John Bradford, questions essentially Lutheran characterizations of Henrician evangelicalism, and portrays early Reformation covenant theology as distinct from proto-Puritanism.\u003c\/p\u003eEndorsements\u003cp\u003e\"The clarity of its analysis and the richness of its evidence make Robert Wainwright's book an excellent guide to the early English Reformers encounter with the theology of Zurich and Basel, Strasbourg and Geneva.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-Steven Gunn, \u003c\/strong\u003eProfessor of Early Modern History, Merton College, University of Oxford\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"A path-breaking study of covenant theology in early Tudor England.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-Felicity M.
