You mean the guy they made the Lutheran Religion after?
The Catholic Church wanted to hang that guy. He was a priest or becoming one I think? But anyway go to www.history.com there they have books, audio/visual you can view on-line. Try that first and then if not enough go to the Borders or Barnes and Nobles book sites, and there you will find thousands of books and a site on each for used out of print issues. Happy New Year

Wow, above me is another look at wikipedia is only a starting point, Give some knowledge instead of passing on a link. When I was studing Napoleon, I read a biography to start. Then I started reading what I knew Napoleon read James Boswell's History of Corsica, so I found a copy and read it, and it gave me a first hand experience I could relate to Napoleon. Anyhoo, I say this because The Four Books of Sentences (Libri Quattuor Sententiarum) by Peter Lombard was the texbook that Luther taught from at University before his 95 thesis. You could relate better if you had the chance to read it.

First, it's "are there any good books...". Second, he wasn't a Doctor. You are mixing MLK with Martin Luther. There are plenty of books about him. Try Amazon. Once you read some book reviews and see a book that interests you, go see if your library has it. That's the cheap way. Good luck.

There are hundreds of them out there. Check your local library!
@John D: actually, Martin Luther was a Doctor of Theology, he was awarded the degree in Wittenberg in 1512 D

Look at the very bottom of the link and you will discover References. Information in an encyclopedia almost always comes from sources or references. Check it out
(not everyone is at graduate level studies, if they're looking for answers on this site it is most likely a first attempt, Ummmm ;-))
