They That Took The Sword is a historical fiction novel written by Nathaniel W. Stephenson. The story is set in the 17th century and follows the lives of two brothers, John and Thomas, who are forced to choose between their loyalty to their country and their loyalty to their family. The brothers are born into a family of English Catholics who are persecuted for their religious beliefs. John becomes a soldier in the English army, while Thomas becomes a Jesuit priest. As the English Civil War breaks out, the brothers find themselves on opposite sides of the conflict. John fights for the Royalists, while Thomas becomes a chaplain for the Parliamentarians. The story explores the themes of loyalty, family, and faith, as well as the political and religious turmoil of the time. Stephenson's vivid descriptions of battles and political intrigue make for a gripping read, and the characters are complex and well-developed. They That Took The Sword is a must-read for fans of historical fiction and anyone interested in the history of England during the 17th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
