Lang also discusses Knox's role in the establishment of the Presbyterian Church in Scotland, his political activities, and his influence on the Scottish society.

It is a valuable resource for historians, scholars, and anyone interested in the history of Scotland and the Reformation movement.1905. In this brief life of Knox, Mr. Lang tried, as much as he could, to get behind tradition, which has so deeply affected even modern histories of the Scottish Reformation, and even recent biographies of the Reformer.
