Queens, spies, saints, heresy, torture and courage. Terrorism in the time of Queen Elizabeth 1st was a cutthroat battle between a tyrannical government and religious extremism. Good citizens were Anglican. Traitors were Catholic. Abandoning Queen Elizabeth’s favor and a fast-track career in the Anglican church, Edmund Campion followed his conscience into the Catholic priesthood.
