Description

John Penry, The Pilgrim Martyr: 1559-1593 is a biographical account of the life and death of John Penry, a Welsh Puritan preacher who was executed for his beliefs in the late 16th century. The book was written by John Waddington and was originally published in 1854. The book begins with a detailed overview of Penry's early life, including his upbringing in a devoutly religious family in Wales and his education at Oxford University. It then goes on to describe Penry's conversion to Puritanism and his subsequent involvement in the religious and political controversies of the time.The book also provides a fascinating insight into the religious and political landscape of Elizabethan England, with particular focus on the struggle between the established Church of England and the Puritan movement. Waddington describes Penry's role in this struggle, including his involvement in the publication of several controversial pamphlets and his eventual arrest and execution.Throughout the book, Waddington portrays Penry as a courageous and principled individual who was willing to stand up for his beliefs, even in the face of persecution and death. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Puritan movement in England and the struggles faced by religious dissenters during this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
