The teaching provided by catechisms - pithy summaries of Protestant doctrine - covered all aspects of life in early modern England. Printed catechisms circulated in their millions, yet this is the first major study of both the medium and the message. It includes a detailed finding list which will enable scholars from many disciplines to sample the value of these works.
