A Legend of Canterbury or The People's Martyr is a historical novel written by Elizabeth M. Stewart and published in 1896. The story is set in the 12th century in Canterbury, England, and revolves around the life of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury. The novel portrays Becket as a man of great courage and conviction who stands up to the King of England, Henry II, in defense of the church and its independence. The story follows Becket's journey from a loyal friend of the king to a martyr who is willing to die for his beliefs. The novel is a vivid portrayal of the political and religious tensions of the time and the struggle for power between the church and the state. It is a powerful and moving account of one of the most significant events in English history and a tribute to the enduring legacy of Thomas Becket.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
