It's wonderful. The articles are thorough with decent bibliographies. I have learned a lot from them. I have found myself as of late gravitating to works like this with self-contained articles instead of plowing through whole books. You can sit down and within 10-15 minutes learn something interesting and it also allows you to A.D.D. onto another topic without the guilt of not finishing yet another book!
There are a ton of biographies of reformers that are not known as well. Information about the locations of the reformation are interesting.
Here is a set for $295. Keep on the lookout at Abebooks...I found a used set from a library for $250...still expensive but definitely worth it. If you purchase any amount of books, you realize how quickly you can add up to 300 bucks. I would forego a few books here and there and invest in this set.
