About this product

Product Information

The Gunpower Plot of 1605 is one of the most commemorated events in English history. Yet this astonishing episode remains shrouded in mystery and the subject of passionate argument. The central aim of Antonia Fraser's rich and immensely readable book is to explain why there should have been a plot at all, and to understand why the courageous, idealistic, but terrifyingly misguided conspirators risked their lives for what they believed to be the cause of God and their country. Antonia Fraser has recreated the drama of the Gunpowder plot in a narrative which reads like a gripping detective story. With sympathy and objectivity she untangles the intricate relationship between religion and politics in the early seventeeth century. Above all, she brings the distant events surrounding that fateful night of 5 Novemember 1605 to dramatic life in ways which have an eerie resemblance to our own times, when the relationship of terrorism to idealism is still under dispute.

Sometimes things are said to have a ‘wow factor’, this cushion has double ‘wow factor’! It is absolutely fabulous. The sewing skill of this lady have to be seen to be believed! I can’t actually put into words how delighted I am. I can only recommend her very, very highly.

  • A Fluent Synthesis.

    The author has managed to create a fluent synthesis of what are frequently misunderstood circumstances and forces that were involved in one of the most serious threats to the government of the country. The players in this drama, both large and small, are arranged properly and intelligently in their positions and roles. The result is that the reader is given a very comprehensive and authentic view of the interplay of all the factors, human, political and spiritual.
