About this listen

 Originally published in the 16th century, this is the classic history of the lives, sufferings, and deaths of the early Christian martyrs. As interesting as fiction, it is written with both passion and tenderness, telling the dramatic story of some of the most thrilling periods in Christian history. Foxe brings to life the days when "a noble army, men and boys, the matron and the maid, climbed the steep ascent of heaven, amid peril, toil, and pain."

After The Bible itself, no book so profoundly influenced early Protestant sentiment as the Book of Martyrs. Even in our time it is still a living force. It is more than a record of persecution. It is an arsenal of controversy, a storehouse of romance, as well as a source of edification.

Don't buy from Audible they suck you can't get it out in mp3 format files. Used hours to try to figure out how to get into mp3 only to find out it seemed impossible with there new bullshit security things - that I can't do what I want - and have pretty much only bought a license of a product not being able to do what I want with it as I want. You can get this version of Foxes book of Martyr from another place in MP3 format as I mistakenly ended up getting it from 2 places - one being audible who don't even let me take it out of the platform for easy playing on other sources because of there security nonsense. I won't have anything to do with a company like this - and I don't want it on my phone. And 30 days free on Audible and then you need to pay YET you still have to pay for books? What a Scam!!!

Don't buy from Audible they suck.

The original CD headings are still present on the audiobook. Currently up to CD5 and the breaks often happens in the middle of sentences.

worse still, the CD is available on line for less than this Audible version and you get to keep it
