Unquenchable Flame is a historical biography written by Julian P. Johnson. The book tells the story of William Tyndale, a 16th-century English scholar and theologian who is best known for his translation of the New Testament into English. Tyndale's translation was the first English version of the Bible to be printed and distributed widely, and it played a key role in the Reformation.The book begins with Tyndale's early life and education, and follows his journey as he becomes a passionate advocate for the translation of the Bible into the vernacular. Tyndale's work was controversial at the time, as the Catholic Church believed that only the clergy should have access to the Bible. Despite facing opposition and persecution, Tyndale continued his work, eventually translating the entire New Testament and parts of the Old Testament into English.The book also explores Tyndale's personal life, including his relationships with his family and friends, as well as his struggles with poverty and illness. Johnson paints a vivid picture of 16th-century England, and provides readers with a detailed understanding of the political and religious climate of the time.Overall, Unquenchable Flame is a compelling biography that offers readers a fascinating look at one of the most important figures in the history of the English language and the Protestant Reformation.This is a new release of the original 1935 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
