    Phil thank you this is wonderful! The history of Catholicism during this period is not known well even by Catholics. We must get to know this period. I am reading a wonderful book by Robert Hugh Benson called "By What Authority" which is truly great. There are some books, however not many of John Gerard, Edmund Campion and Robert Persons which are available if you can hunt them down.

    Read The Stripping of the Altars by a Cambridge prof. It really explains what life was like for ordinary ppl who kept having to "switch religions" from day to day.

    I know, right? Isn’t just APPALLING when someone goes out of their way, spending their money and time (two people’s time in this instance), providing people with FREE content, to not do exactly what you think is right? I think your rude comment was totally justified. #peoplewhoworkinhistorysharerudecomments
