Descripción

Immerse yourself in the harrowing tales of authors who paid the ultimate price for their work. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, freedom of thought was a dangerous concept. Authors could be executed for presenting truths we now take for granted, such as the idea that the earth orbits the sun. Explore what life was like in these perilous times, when an authors pen could lead to their downfall. (Summary by Michele Eaton)
