'The Horrid Popish Plot' - Hinds, Peter (Lecturer in English, University of Plymouth)

The Popish plot was an alleged Catholic conspiracy to assassinate Charles II and re-introduce the Catholic faith to England. This volume considers how details of the plot circulated in print, manuscript and word of mouth, and considers the insights offered by the writings of the most prolific commentator on the Popish plot, Roger L'Estrange.
