God's Word and the Gutenberg Press - Mark Smith - Bog

For nearly 600 years, authors have chronicled the story of Gutenberg's revolutionary invention, the movable type printing press, and yet the whole story has never fully been told until now. God's Word and Gutenberg's Bible explores the miraculous and providential incidents surrounding the invention of the printing press. It places in context the religious, scientific, political, and historical events that inspired this great man's vision and passion for printing the Bible. Gutenberg saw, as only few men have ever seen, the demand and need for God's Word. His invention literally transformed the night of the Dark Ages into the daylight of the Reformation.
