Saint John Fisher by Michael Davies. A much needed biography of this great saint, a saint for our time if ever there was one. St. John Fisher is one of the greatest Catholics who ever lived and his life certainly provides the perfect example of a truly Catholic bishop. This life of Fisher portrays in a vivid manner those most closely involved in his life and martyrdom—King Henry VIII; Lady Margaret Beaufort, Fisher’s patron; the scheming Anne Boleyn; the saintly Queen Catherine; the cowardly Cardinal Wolsey; the uncompromising saint Thomas More; etc. After you have enjoyed and read this book the first time, you will enjoy reading it again and again, and also use it as a great reference resource. Gold embossed, hardcover, 60 lb. cream paper, 140 pages. |
