Most of the book is either persecutions by non Christians or else biographies of non martyrs. I understand that it could be a rallying point, but once one reads it, it isn’t.
There are a number of Protestant martyrs, to be sure. How is St. Thomas More treated, though? That should give you pause about its accuracy and its viewpoint.

I'm not a Lutheran.. I think the Lutheran Church is not far from the RCC.. But I think Martin Luther deserves some respect.. as well as a few Popes..
