Faith and Treason the Story of the Gunpowder Plot
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Random House Inc
- Publish date: 11/01/1997
In England, November 5 is Guy Fawkes Day, when fireworks commemorate one of the most shocking moments in British history: the 1605 attempt to blow up the House of Parliament, and King James I along with it. In Faith and Treason, Antonia Fraser untangles the web of religion, politics, and personalities surrounding this infamous act of terrorism. Planned by a group of English Catholics in response to a history of severe penal laws against Catholicism, the Gunpowder Plot was a desperate -- and doomed -- conspiracy that led to torture, executions, and a high tide of anti-Catholic feeling in England that would alter the nation's Catholic community forever. Both detective story and social history, Faith and Treason is gripping and dramatic history.
