'The author has explicated and integrated previously ignored - or indeed previously unknown - archival material. Equally important is the author's exact examination of the accounts of the disputations in the Tower of London, the use of torture, and the final trial. ... a well written, well researched, and much needed biography of an important figure.' Thomas McCoog, SJ, Fordham University, USA
