Accession number
PML 5524
Creator
Foxe, John, 1516-1587.
Published
Basileae : Per Nicolaum Brylingerum, et Ioannem Oporinum, 1559.
Notes
An early Latin version of what Foxe expanded in English as his Actes and monuments.
Foxe never wrote the intended 2nd part, which was to cover continental martyrs of recent times; done finally by Heinrich Pantaleon and published in 1563 (Mozley, J.F. John Foxe and his book, 1940?).
Numerous errors in pagination, including the repetition of 501- 502 twice.
First ed. of "Book of martyrs."
PML copy formerly recorded as shelved at WR W 03 C.
