Om Alice Lisle
Alice Lisle was a woman accused of harbouring fugitives during the reign of King James II. Her trial and execution in 1685 became a cause célèbre and a symbol of the tyranny of the Stuart monarchy. This book presents an in-depth study of Alice Lisle's life and trial, drawing on contemporary records and historical accounts. It explores the wider political and social context of her case, and its significance for the struggle for political and religious freedom in 17th century England.
