500 years ago this year Calvin was born. We all knew that! But I bet most of us don't know much more than that. There's a great wee book by Ian Manson (previously of our next door parish) who now exists in Geneva exactly where Calvin used to preach - imagine. So, even by osmosis he knows more about him than most of us.
But this book isn't written by osmosis. It's very readable and puts Calvin in the context of what was happening around his time and the reformation. I'd recommend it and if you'd like a copy, then go here to get yours. It's excellent.
