Summary
This fascinating book details the persecution suffered by the English people under the Tudor and Stuart monarchs. It is well known that Henry VIII, Mary Tudor's father, was the catalyst for the English Reformation that created the chasm between England and Rome, but when Mary ascended the throne, being an ardent Catholic, it was the Protestants that suffered what's known as the Marian Persecutions. This work uses contemporary records to construct the reality of life under the Tudors and Stuarts.
