In The Year 1581, After Four Days Of Debating Six Leading Anglican Divines At The Tower Of London, Jesuit Edmund Campion (1540-1581) Was Put To Death Because He Would Not Deny His Faith. In 1970, The Martyred Campion Was Canonized A Saint. A Jesuit Challenge Is A Book-length Edition Of Previously Unpublished Catholic Manuscript Accounts Of Those Debates.
