A Brief History of the Glorious Martyrdom of Twelve Reverend Priests: Father Edmund Campion and His Companions is a historical account of the persecution of Catholic priests in England during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. Written by William Cardinal Allen in 1908, the book details the lives and deaths of twelve priests who were executed for their faith in the late 16th century. The most prominent of these priests was Father Edmund Campion, a Jesuit who was known for his eloquent preaching and his efforts to reconcile Catholics and Protestants in England. The book describes the trials and tribulations that these priests faced as they worked to minister to the Catholic faithful in a hostile environment, and the courage and faith that they displayed in the face of persecution. The book also provides a broader historical context for the persecution of Catholics in England, including the political and religious tensions that led to the Protestant Reformation and the establishment of the Church of England. Overall, A Brief History of the Glorious Martyrdom of Twelve Reverend Priests is a compelling and informative account of a dark chapter in English history, and a testament to the bravery and devotion of those who gave their lives for their faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
