Written in Latin in 1562 for readers across Europe, Bishop Jewel’s defence answered the charge that the English Reformation had invented a new church. He argued instead that it had returned to the faith of the first Christian centuries. This edition gives the early English translation by Lady Anne Bacon, mother of Francis Bacon, with an introduction by Henry Morley.
