The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women is a polemical treatise written by John Knox, a Scottish Protestant reformer, in 1558. The book argues against the rule of women in government and specifically targets the Catholic queens of Europe, including Mary Tudor of England and Mary of Guise of Scotland. Knox asserts that women are inferior to men in both intellect and morality, and that their rule is contrary to the natural order established by God. He also argues that women rulers are more prone to corruption and tyranny than their male counterparts. The book caused controversy upon its publication and remains a controversial piece of literature to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
