Comments on R.A. Sheats’ biography of Pierre Viret

« This new biography of the great French Swiss Reformer Pierre Viret is a groundbreaking venture. Not only has R.A. Sheats given is the first full (and exhaustively illustrated!) biography of Viret in English, but has achieved this feat with impeccable scholarship, making very generous use of the available sources. She has, in the manner of her great predecessor Merle d’Aubigné, entered into the very spirit of our Reformer, an achievement which she has rendered in a most engaging and attractive style. » – Jean-Marc Berthoud, Historian and Theologian, Lausanne

« R.A. has written a superb biography on our Swiss Reformer that is both warmhearted and scholarly. We anticipate a soon translation into French. » – Daniel Bovet, President of l’Association Pierre Viret, Switzerland
