Man Who Dared A King

Man Who Dared a King

by Rev. Gerald T. Brennan

This book tells the story of St. John Fisher, a Catholic bishop who lived in England during the 16th century. Fisher was a close friend of Sir Thomas More, and like More, he refused to accept King Henry VIII's claim to be the head of the Church of England. Fisher was arrested and imprisoned, and ultimately martyred for his faith.
