The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women is a controversial treatise written by Scottish theologian John Knox in 1558. The book argues that it is against God's will for women to hold positions of power and authority, including as queens and rulers. Knox cites numerous examples from the Bible and history to support his argument and calls on all Christian men to resist female rule. The book was written during a time of political upheaval, with several female monarchs reigning in Europe, and it caused a great deal of controversy and backlash. Despite its controversial nature, The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women is considered an important historical document for understanding the attitudes and beliefs of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
