The Princess of Viarna: or, the Spanish Inquisition, in the Reign of the Emperor Charles the Fifth
RARE copy of this mid-nineteenth century work on the life and times of Emperor Charles the Fifth. Dedicated \"to the Protestant community of this land of religious toleration, the following pages, aiming to elucidate, in a familiar manner, the iniquities of Priestcraft during a period of Ecclesiastical supremacy over the mightiest of Roman Catholic empires, is fraternally dedicated by their author, in a fervent hope that the historical experience of man\'s degradation in the past may forewarn enlightened children of Luther, that, although the Spanish Inquisition is nominally extinct, the religious spirit which created it, not only lives among us, but ardently struggles to re-erect, in every quarter of the globe, its blasphemous tribunal\". Interior is VG; exterior red cloth has moderate wear to edges and spine ends, has a split along the bottom half of the front spine edge, and has light soils.
