John Milton

In the wake of the brutal massacre of Waldensian Protestants in the Piedmont region of Italy, John Milton penned a powerful and impassioned treatise, "On the Late Massacre in the Piedmont." This seminal work, written in 1655, is a scathing indictment of the Catholic Church's persecution of religious minorities. Milton's eloquent prose and unwavering defense of religious freedom have made this book a timeless classic, inspiring generations of readers to fight against tyranny and oppression.
