Period+1+Gutenberg

Johannes Gutenberg Johannes Gutenberg was born in the 1400s, in Mainz, Germany. He was the creator of the printing press. The letters could be moved around and that made it easier and quicker to make books. The most famous book he printed was the Gutenberg Bible. Books were easier to get and because of this more people began to read. People began to interpret the Bible in their own way and were angry because some of the things priests said were not in the Bible. Before the printing press only rich people read and priests had to tell others what the Bible said. When people found out that the priests had been lying to them there was uproar and most lost faith in the church.
