Fox's Book of Martyrs

"A history of the lives, sufferings, and triumphant deaths of the early Christian and the Protestant martyrs." A 16th century book, updated to include 17th, 18th, and 19th century persecutions of dissenters like John Bunyan and the Quakers and missionaries like Adoniram Judson.

"After the Bible itself, no book so profoundly influenced early Protestant sentiment as the Book of Martyrs. Even in our time it is still a living force. It is more than a record of persecution. It is an arsenal of controversy, a storehouse of romance, as well as a source of edification."
