Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns: Education for Protestants by E A Sutherland

Sermons on the Eisenach Gospels by J Sheatsley

Vindication of Luther Against His Recent English Assailants by Julian Charles Hare
“When a man has taken a leading part in the conflicts of his age, it will often happen that… the feelings with which he was regarded during his life, will cluster around him after his death… Now perhaps there is no one in the whole history of the world, against whom such a host of implacable prejudices and antipathies have been permanently arrayed, as against Luther. For the contest in which he engaged is the most momentous ever waged by a single man… its issue is still pending.” - Charles Hare

Luther's Galatians Commentary Complete and Unabridged by Martin Luther
“‘The Epistle to the Galatians was a favorite of Luther’s… He found in it a source of strength for his own faith and life, and an armory of weapons for his reforming work… He came to think very little of his earlier commentaries. ‘They won’t do at all for this age ;’ he said, ‘they were only my first struggles against the confidence of works.’ But he rated his later exposition more highly. When the complete Latin edition of his works was in preparation a couple of years before his death, he said: ‘If they took my advice, they’d print only the books containing doctrine, like the Galatians.’” — From the Editor’s Preface
