This volume gathers three portraits from that vanished civilization: Alcuin of York, the Benedictine scholar who helped shape the mind of Christendom; Pope Adrian IV, the only Englishman to ascend the Chair of Peter; and the Elizabethan martyrs, whose blood consecrated a land already in ruin.

All are men formed by a world in which the Faith governed law, language, and kingship. With selections from E.M. Wilmot-Buxton, Richard Raby, and Dom Bede Camm, Alcuin, Adrian & the Martyrs offers a triptych of English Catholic order: its mind, its power, and its suffering.

The old England was once Benedictine.
The old England was once Roman.
The old England was once Sanctified.
