Its essays examine the successes as well as the failures of the reformation movement, considering not only the institutional churches but also the spread of Anabaptism. The volume highlights the different form that the Reformation took among the members of the Confederation and its allied territories, and it describes the political, social and cultural consequences of the Reformation for the Confederation as a whole.  Contributors are: Irena Backus, Jan-Andrea Bernhard, Amy Nelson Burnett, Michael W. Bruening, Erich Bryner, Emidio Campi, Bruce Gordon, Kaspar von Greyerz, Sundar Henny, Karin Maag, Thomas Maissen, Regula Schmid-Keeling, Martin Sallmann, and Andrea Strübind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“In scope and detail this book has no equal in the English language—or perhaps any language for that matter. […] without doubt the best available in its field.” C. Arnold Snyder, Conrad Grebel University College. In: The Mennonite Quarterly Review, Vol. 91 (July 2017), pp. 428-432.  “This Companion can be recommended as a succinct point of orientation for all students and researchers with interest in the Swiss Reformation.” Beat Kümin, University of Warwick. In: Journal of Ecclesiastical History, Vol. 68. No. 4 (October 2017), pp. 869-871.    “incredibly valuable to scholars […] the essays synthesize and present in English much of the recent research on the Swiss Reformation that has been written in French and German […] it is worth pointing out that in addition to the sophistication and scholarly value of the essays, this collection contains numerous maps and images, many in color, which is a rare treat for academic readers.”   Carrie Euler, Central Michigan University. In: Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 71, No. 1 (Spring 2018), pp. 361-362.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments List of Contributors Abbreviations List of Maps List of Illustrations  Part One: Background  Introduction  \tAmy Nelson Burnett and Emidio Campi  Chapter One: The Swiss Confederation Before the Reformation \tRegula Schmid  Part Two: The Reformation  Chapter Two: The Reformation in Zurich  \tEmidio Campi  Chapter Three: The Reformation in Bern  \tMartin Sallmann  Chapter Four: The Reformation in Basel  \tAmy Nelson Burnett  Chapter Five: The Reformation in Schaffhausen  \tEric Bryner  Chapter Six: The Reformation in St. Gallen and Appenzell  \tEric Bryner  Chapter Seven: Failed Reformations  \tSundar Henny  Chapter Eight: The Reformation in the Three Leagues  \tJan-Andrea Bernhard  Chapter Nine: Francophone Territories Allied to the Swiss Confederation  \tMichael W.
