Known as ôthe father of the English Bible,ö Tyndale was accused of heresy, imprisoned, and ultimately executed for his translation efforts. Though his life was cut short, TyndaleÆs work became the foundation for most later English translations of the Scripture, especially the famous King James Version of 1611.Fish, Bruce is the author of 'William Tyndale Bible Translator and Martyr', published 2000 under ISBN 9781577487388 and ISBN 1577487389.
