Reader reviews for Come Rack! Come Rope! (1912)

From the publisher

""Come Rack! Come Rope!"" is a historical novel by Robert Hugh Benson, first published in 1912. Set in England during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, the novel follows the story of two Catholic families, the Fitzherberts and the Corbets, as they struggle to practice their faith in a country where Catholicism is outlawed. The novel explores themes of religious persecution, love, and loyalty as the families face imprisonment, torture, and death for their beliefs. The title of the book refers to the method of execution used for Catholic priests at the time, where they were hanged, drawn, and quartered. The novel is widely regarded as a classic of Catholic literature and historical fiction, and is often studied in Catholic schools and universities. It is also considered a valuable historical document, providing insight into the religious and political tensions of the Elizabethan era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
