Publisher's Summary

Because of these brave martyrs, we have a church today; we have a country today; we have a world today. They gave their lives so that our church may survive and spread to the four corners of the Earth.

The book covers various martyrs throughout history, such as:

  • The Irish martyrs: suffered persecution, famine, martyrdom and near annihilation for their faith
  • The American martyrs: Knowing they would die, they went to bring the light of Jesus to the New World
  • The Mexican martyrs: Martyrs of the 20th century, they died rather than deny the pope and mother church
  • The Polish martyrs: Hear about the ongoing suffering and martyrdom the Poles endured for 51 years
  • The English martyrs: They would not compromise their church, not for the king or the country they dearly loved
  • The martyrs of Auschwitz: Edith Stein (Carmelite convert/author) - died for her people/Maximilian Kolbe - when as a child our lady offered him two crowns, purity and martyrdom, he chose both
  • Archbishop Oscar Romero: martyred on the altar
  • Saint Joan of Arc: burned at the stake
  • And other martyrs
