Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the trials and tribulations of Scottish Catholics during a tumultuous period in their history, spanning the reigns of Charles I and James VI. The author, through a collection of personal letters and memoirs written by Jesuit missionaries, paints a vivid picture of their daily struggles under intense persecution. The book reveals the resilience of the Catholic community in the face of discrimination, highlighting their unwavering faith and the courage they demonstrated in defying the dominant Protestant establishment. The letters offer first-hand accounts of the political and social upheavals that defined this era in Scotland, including the rise of the Covenanters and the machinations of the King and his Council in attempting to suppress Catholicism. Through a lens of religious persecution, the book explores the complexities of power, faith, and individual sacrifice. These intimate narratives provide a unique and revealing perspective on the cultural and religious landscape of 17th-century Scotland, showcasing the deep-seated convictions that fuelled both the Catholic and Protestant communities in their enduring conflict.
