A fascinating tale of fidelity, betrayal, conversion and martyrdom in Elizabethan England. While Protestant Queen Elizabeth sits on the English throne, the staunchly Catholic Maxwe ll family and their equally staunch Puritan neighbours, the Norris family, live in relative peace and harmony in the village of Great Keynes, twenty miles from London. As the persecution of Catholics intensifies, however, the fidelity of the followers of the “old religion” is put to the test. Some hold fast even to the point of martyrdom; others prefer to secure their social status and abandon the Faith of their Fathers. Families are divided. Betrayal and treachery abound. But in the midst of all this persecution and suffering, the Light of Truth continues to shine, drawing souls of good will from the darkness of error into the One, True Church. This completely and meticulously re-typeset edition is the best quality edition available of this classic Catholic title. The previous book in this series, The King’s Achievement. Show more
