\nThomas Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury under King's Henry VIII and Edward VI, and architect of the new liturgy of the 1549 Book of Common Prayer, was a master of the theology of the Mass, and hated it. Michael Davies shows that King Henry (and later, Queen Elizabeth I), and Archbishop Cranmer all understood that if you change the way people pray, then you will change what they believe.Revised and expanded by Mr. Davies during his final years, and drawing upon the best of Catholic and Protestant scholarship and on primary sources, Davies traces the steps by which the ancient Catholic Mass became the Lord's Supper in the Church of England --- and shows how those changes were directly inspired by the Reformer's fundamental theological differences with the Church of Rome, and these steps were indeed actual changes - as Popes and Reformers alike were at pains to stress.
