John Foxe’s graphic and angry work depicting the persecutions inflicted by the Roman Catholic church, was partly a response to the rising tide of intolerance across Europe in the mid-sixteenth century, but more specifically to the recent persecution of Protestants in England. Catholic Mary died in 1558, and was succeeded by the Protestant Elizabeth.

David Loades describes the impact of one of the most significant books of its time.
