Heresy And Popular Protestantism In England, 1527-1553, William Saffady
Wayne State University Dissertations

Much work has been done on the nature and scope of non-maglsterlal Protestantism on the continent, the so-called "Radical Reformation", but these studies have largely Ignored the presence in England of a contemporary movement to restore primitive Christianity together with an ethical religion based on Scripture.

There are many good biographical studies …
