First Sentence
Christ our Savior, in the Gospel of St. Matthew, hearing the confession of Simon Peter, who, first of all other, openly acknowledged Him to be the Son of God, and perceiving the secret hand of His Father therein, called him (alluding to his name) a rock, upon which rock He would build His Church so strong that the gates of hell should not prevail against it. Read the first page

2.0 out of 5 stars Not a good edition, 2 Dec 2002
By B. Tovey (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
My rating relates solely to the edition, and not to the content. Foxe's work is such a classic that no review would do it justice. Unfortunately, this edition doesn't do it justice either. There is absolutely no editorial material, so it's impossible to know whether the editor has made changes. The language has obviously been modernised, but there are no indications of how the text has been changed. The print and paper are not good quality either - it looks rather more like a cheap thriller you'd pick up at a train station than a serious work.

5.0 out of 5 stars WARNING about misleading reviews, 21 Jul 2007
By Tim (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Foxe's Book of Martyrs (Ambassador Classics) (Paperback)
This is not a review of the content of Foxe's Book of Martyrs (which is excellent). It is rather a warning to potential purchasers: please note that Amazon has copied reviews that rightly relate only to a specific edition across several different editions.

Furthermore, the "Search Inside" feature shows inaccurate views of some editions (for example, at the time of writing, a view of Kessinger's edition is incorrectly shown for both Ambassador Publications' and Hendrickson Christian Classics' editions).

5.0 out of 5 stars Should be passed out at churches, 6 Dec 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: The New Foxe's Book of Martyrs (Pure Gold Classics) (Paperback)
This book should be read by everyone who calls themselves "Christian."Anytime I get to feeling life is too tough,and I start feeling like God isn't close,this book and the book of Job are the books to get me back to reality.When you read the book of martyrs and you read the horrible ways these Christians were tortured and killed you realize you have no reason to complain and every reason to be thankful.Thankful not only to Jesus Christ and the apostles, but to the Christians all over the world who are being killed every day for the Gospel.If you have ever wondered how the apostles died, this book tells you.Incidentally, John was the only apostle who died of old age.Humbling and educational

4.0 out of 5 stars A valuable example in the history of fanaticism.
There was never a worse time to be religious than in the 16th Century; Protestants persecuted Catholics and vice versa; each side persecuted its own heretics with equal vigour. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars A frightening, and appalling eye opener
I have read a very very old hard cover copy of this book brought to Canada from England in World War I, which was in my grandmother's family long before that. Read more
