Tyborne and Who Went Thither in the Days of Queen Elizabeth [and the Gem of Christendom]

x, 190 pp. Tyborne and the Gem of Christendom is an historical novel of the time of St. Edmund Campion. The late Fr. Philip Fletcher called Tyborne the pioneer work on the English Martyrs, and Cardinal Logue confessed that he could not lay down the story till the end. Let us hope that the readers of today will equally enjoy Tyborne dressed as it is in all its Victorian garb and rich in graphic scenes as the theme develops. The hero, the hunt, the mock trial, the cell and the suffering have their counterpart in our own day.
