Product Description

Product Description
In a narrative which reads like a gripping detective story, Antonia Faser untangles the intricacies of this conspiracy against the monarchy and the government to reveal the truth about the extraordinary events which led up to that fateful night of 5th November 1605. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Synopsis
The Gunpowder Plot of 1605 is one of the most commemorated events in English history, but remains shrouded in mystery. The central aim of his account is to explain why there should have been a plot at all, and why the conspirators risked their lives for what they believed to be the cause of God and their country. The narrative reads like a detective story as Antonia Fraser sets with sympathy and objectivity to untangle the intricate relationship between religion and politics in early-17th-century England.
