The Confessor, A Jesuit Tale Of The Times: Founded On Fact is a historical novel written by Elizabeth Hardy and published in 1854. The book is set in the 16th century and follows the story of Father Francis, a Jesuit priest who is sent to England during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. Father Francis is tasked with the difficult mission of converting the English people to Catholicism, despite the harsh laws and persecution against Catholics at the time.As Father Francis navigates through the dangerous political landscape of Tudor England, he meets several key figures, including the Queen herself. The novel also explores the conflict between Catholics and Protestants, as well as the personal struggles of Father Francis as he tries to balance his loyalty to the church with his duty to his country.The story is based on true events and characters, including the infamous Gunpowder Plot of 1605. The Confessor is a captivating tale of faith, betrayal, and political intrigue, and provides a vivid portrayal of life in Tudor England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
