1853 MENNO SIMONS. Rare Biography of Baptist - Mennonite Reformer, Menno Simons [1496-1561].

Rather scarce Baptist-ification of the life of the radical reformer, Menno Simons [1496-1561]. Traditionally viewed as the originator of the Mennonite church, his reforms have also often been tied to the Anabaptist and Baptist traditions, both in terms of the role of baptism and in their perspectives of the spirituality of the Kingdom and religious liberty.
