WILSON, John.

Octavo.

Wing W2926C

The third edition (first published in 1608). A Catholic work.

This copy has the bookplate of Joseph Gillow, author of A Literary and Biographical History, of Bibliographical Dictionary of the English Catholics (q.v.).

Despite its title, The English Martyrologe is more a calendar of saints’ days than a martyrology, and does not include Catholic martyrs of the Reformation.
