The book offers fresh insights into the dramatic search for Campion, the populist nature of the disputations in the Tower, and the legal issues raised by his torture. It was the monarchical republic itself that made him the beloved 'champion' of the English Catholic community. Edmund Campion presents the most detailed and comprehensive picture to date of an historical figure whose loyalty and courage, in the trial and on the scaffold, swiftly became legendary across Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGerard Kilroy is the author of \u003cem\u003eEdmund Campion: Memory and Transcription\u003c\/em\u003e (Ashgate, 2005) and of \u003cem\u003eThe\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eEpigrams of Sir John Harington\u003c\/em\u003e (Ashgate, 2009).
