- Summary:
- Himself a Jesuit and the archivist for the British Province of the Society of Jesus, McCoog draws primarily on that source for his history of the order in England between the two failed Spanish invasions of that country, when the conflict between the Elizabethan settlement of 1559 and Catholicism was at its most tense. He discusses life on the mission; Catholic exiles on the continent 1589-93; plots, conspiracies, and martyrdoms; Catholic exiles on the continent 1594-95; conflict and discord on the English mission; and continental struggles. A second volume is projected to further the story. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
