In the middle of David Teem's latest, Tyndale: The Man Who Gave God an English Voice, is the story of two letters in the middle of someone else's book.  John Rogers' Matthew's Bible made print in 1537. Miles Coverdale's translation of several books of the Old Testament were included, but the majority of the books evidently came from William Tyndale. The only clue of the great translator's involvement, though, was a page the publisher inserted between the two testaments. On that hidden page were the initials W T. Teems describes the publisher's actions: "In that span between Malachi and the Gospel of Matthew, Rogers gives us the identity of its true father." This hidden Tyndale is the theme of the book and, presumably, the way-of-life for the subject himself.
