About the book >.>.> In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries to be English and Catholic was to face persecution financial penalties and even death. Yet some English Catholics pros- pered reconciling their faith and loyalty to their country. Among the most prominent was George Calvert a talented and ambi- tious man who successfully navigated the politics of court to become secretary of state under King James I. A conforming Protestan from the age of twelve Calvert reconverted to Catholicism when a politi- cal crisis forced him to resign his position in 1625. The king rewarded Calvert for his long service by naming him Baron of Baltimore in Ireland. Insulated by wealth enjoying the support of powerful friends and no longer occupied with court busi- ness Baltimore embarked on a series of colonial enterprises that eventually led to the founding of Maryland.
