The Martyrs of Nagasaki is a historical account of the Christian missionaries and converts who were persecuted and killed during the Shimabara Rebellion in Japan in the 17th century. Written by Frederick Vincent Williams, the book tells the story of the Nagasaki Martyrs, a group of 26 Japanese and European Catholics who were tortured and executed for their faith in 1597. The book provides a detailed and vivid description of the events leading up to the persecution, the trial and execution of the martyrs, and the legacy they left behind. Williams also explores the history of Christianity in Japan, the political and social context of the time, and the impact of the Nagasaki Martyrs on the Catholic Church. The Martyrs of Nagasaki is a moving and informative account of a significant moment in Japanese history and the enduring power of faith in the face of persecution.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
