Description: Fine/Like New copy of scarce hardcover, second printing. No dust jacket, but otherwise mint condition. The true story of the first Anabaptists in Zurich, Switzerland. A flowing account of the birth of Anabaptism—that reads like a novel. In this gripping account, the author (a descendant of the Swiss Anabaptists) tries to reconstruct events as they actually happened in 16th century Zurich. The author went back to Swiss court records and other primary source documents to be able to authentically describe what happened. From the author’s “This is a book in which men and women struggle to know the will of God, and to live it. True faith in the sixteenth century was not easy. “Nor is it easy today, in the twentieth century. The cost is still the same—whole-hearted devotion and obedience to God. Temptations have not lessened, nor even changed, in four hundred years. The decisions of our forefathers are the decisions we face today. That, in short, is the reason for this book.”
