Overview

For more than a millennium, the city of Oxford has been at the heart of England’s scholastic, political, and religious life. Popular Christian movements have been born here, resulting in radical reform and far-reaching revival. In this lively account, we meet a courageous princess, an outspoken reformer, three martyred bishops, a puritan vice-chancellor, zealous undergraduates, and an atheist academic who became a Christian apologist. This is the tumultuous story of Oxford, from earliest times to the present day.
