The women in this book were Christians of outstanding courage and conviction. They were not flawless heroines but in their times of trial showed themselves to be brave, intelligent women, of strong character and radiant spirit, living for the Lord who had saved them and whom they had come to know as the only Saviour by grace alone through faith alone. See how God has exercised his sovereignty in history – in the public sphere as well as in the lives of individuals – and be inspired to love Christ more.

… a rich feast of historically fascinating and spiritual enriching biography. … will surely prompt the question in any sincere Christian mind: ‘What does Jesus mean to me?’

No–one could be in any doubt after reading this book, that these women really knew how to give an answer for the hope that they had in Christ. Elaine demonstrates how they courageously and wisely articulated this hope, and faithfully held fast to it until the end.

Women have played significant roles in the advance of the Gospel, and this is especially true during the era of the Reformation. I am therefore thrilled with this new book … there is much that women – and men – can learn from them in our equally challenging day.

… a very insightful view of the nitty–gritty of life in Tudor times – particularly in the higher strata of society.
