Bainton] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Here I Stand: A Life of Martin Luther Review: In the Footsteps of Martin Luther and the Protestant Reformation - In this year 2017 in which Christians the world over celebrate the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, Roland Bainton's very readable and insightful work about its founder should be required reading for all Christians, both Catholics and Protestants, who seek greater unity among the Christian faiths. Martin Luther was both a saint and a sinner and this book brings out both sides of him. While he brought about the needed reforms in the Roman Church, he could also be brutal in his writings against the oppressed peasant class and Jews who chose to remain loyal to their faith. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this informative and well documented work and will keep it in my permanent collection. Review: This Abington Press version is the best-printed, most easily read edition of this classic book - This, the Abington Press book is the edition of this book you should buy. The book is generally accepted as the definitive biography of Martin Luther, the one you should read first. And I don't mean that it is better written than the other offerings of this book by Bainton. IT IS BETTER PRINTED! I borrowed a copy of Bainton's classic book from my local library. After only a few pages I realized that it was a book I wanted to buy and also that I couldn't read my library's copy of the book. The text and the illustrations were not sharp. My old eyes were hurting and couldn't keep reading. Was it bad "plates", poor printing or low grade paper? Doesn't matter. The type looks fuzzy and is hard to read. Bainton deserves better and so do we, his readers. Luckily another comment mentioned this so I ordered this edition. It cost no more than the blurry not-Abington edition. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #70,740 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #197 in Religious Leader Biographies #4,882 in Christian Living (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 586 Reviews | ## Images ![Here I Stand: A Life of Martin Luther - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71q9ayseNsL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ In the Footsteps of Martin Luther and the Protestant Reformation *by H***L on March 1, 2017* In this year 2017 in which Christians the world over celebrate the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, Roland Bainton's very readable and insightful work about its founder should be required reading for all Christians, both Catholics and Protestants, who seek greater unity among the Christian faiths.

This is not the newest biography of Luther, but it is one which has been a standard for several decades and it does a solid job giving a good overview of the man and much of his life. One of the greatest benefits of a biography of such a prolific and influential writer is how it can help situate their works within the context which birthed them, and Bainton does a decent job of that with some of Luther's most influential works. This book definitely had a more religious reader in mind, and it does delve decently into Luther's theology. While Bainton does an excellent job highlighting major themes and even quoting Luther throughout the book, he does not provide adequate citation (at least for scholarly purposes, as several times I wanted to look up quotes or excerpts in their broader context). But for the purposes of introducing one to an overview of Luther's life, helping situate his works within the context of that life, and assisting in grasping the overarching man that Luther was, it does a solid job. The reading was not always easy, though there were sections which I found myself reading more quickly through than others...there were times I struggled not to doze off as I read. A solid biography and does a good job with its subject, albeit a bit of a slog at times. ## Frequently Bought Together - Here I Stand: A Life of Martin Luther - Bridge to the Sun: A Memoir of Love and War - The Imitation of Christ (Dover Thrift Editions) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/6332160-here-i-stand-a-life-of-martin-luther](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/6332160-here-i-stand-a-life-of-martin-luther) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
