The Popish plot was a Catholic conspiracy to assassinate Charles II and re-introduce the Catholic faith to England. This volume considers how details of the plot circulated in print manuscript and word of mouth, and considers the insights offered by the writings of the most prolific commentator on the Popish plot, Roger L'Estrange.

In 1678, against a backdrop of paranoiac fear of Catholicism, Titus Oates and his followers succeeded in convincing both Parliament and the public of a Jesuit and Catholic conspiracy to assassinate Charles II and overthrow the Protestant establishment. As a result, hundreds of Catholics suffered imprisonment and 24 were executed. Here is the background of that plot, its development, and its long-term repercussions. "With the technical mastery of a seasoned professional...he retells in vivid detail an extraordinary tale of human credulity, knavery, and folly."--The Times.
