Blue cloth, gilt title to front and spine, small tear to spine, discolouration to spine and a few small white spots to front board. G+.** "Simon Fish (died 1531) was a 16th-century Protestant reformer and English propagandist. He is best known for helping to spread William Tyndale's New Testament and for authoring the vehemently anti-clerical pamphlet Supplication for the Beggars (A Supplycacion for the Beggars) which the Roman Catholic Church condemned as heretical on 24 May 1530. His pamphlet can be seen as a precursor to the English Reformation and the Protestant Reformation. Fish was eventually arrested in London on charges of heresy, but he was stricken with bubonic plague and died before he could stand trial.Fish authored his incendiary pamphlet Supplication for the Beggars during his second exile in Antwerp. The 16-page pamphlet accused the Roman Catholic Church of everything from avarice to murder to treason". (wiki).
