Items related to A History of the Protestant Reformation in England...
Though written by a Protestant (between 1824 and 1827), this book has been repeatedly reprinted by Catholic publishers because of the tremendous light it sheds on English history from Henry VIII (1509) thru George III (1820), showing that England was better off before the Reformation than after. Unabashedly pro-Catholic and a real eye-opener! 432 pgs, PB

About the Author:
William Cobbett was born in 1763 at Surrey, England. An author, farmer and journalist, he yearned for something more than his simple country life could afford, and became intimately familiar with the English language while enlisted with Nova Scotia. Noted for his efforts which served as a preamble to the Reform Bill of 1832, as well as for his aversion to authority and novelty, Mr. Cobbett is most famous for his Rural Rides, which was printed in 1830. He also composed A History of the Protestant Reformation in England and Ireland, which amounts to a thrilling and accurate portrayal of the untold disasters of the times during the Reform. He died on the eighteenth of June, 1835, at the age of seventy-two.
Review:
G.K. Chesterton says that the accuracy of William Cobbett s History of the Reformation has never been challenged: only his challenge has been challenged! He turned popular history on its head, simply by looking at the facts, and calling the players by their proper names, such as Bloody Bess and Good Queen Mary. --Dale Ahlquist (President of the American Chesterton Society)
