Foxe has written an excellent book detailing the sacrifices (often with their lives) followers of Jesus Christ have paid.
While Foxe mentions well-known sufferers and martyrs in Christian circles such as the Apostles, Wycliffe, Luther, Latimer, and others, he also mentions less well-known figures. While some names are less known, their sacrifices were just as real and have not been forgotten.
