Jesuits and the Popish Plot is a historical book written by Malcolm V. Hay. The book explores the infamous Popish Plot, a conspiracy theory that emerged in 1678 in England, which alleged that a group of Jesuit priests and Catholics were planning to assassinate King Charles II and overthrow the Protestant government. The book focuses on the role of the Jesuits in the plot and their persecution by the English government. The author provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the plot, the trials and executions of the accused, and the impact of the plot on the Jesuits and the Catholic community in England. The book also examines the wider political and religious context of the time, including the tensions between Catholics and Protestants, and the power struggle between the monarchy and parliament. Overall, Jesuits and the Popish Plot is a comprehensive and informative account of a fascinating and controversial period in English history.1934. This book is set forth like a mystery...the dramatis personae, the crime, the clue and the summing up against the accused parties. The author leaves the final judgment up to the reader, who, if he finds a verdict of guilty against the accused, will more than likely pity at least one of the accused and will recommend mercy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
