"John Knox" by William M. Taylor is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the life and contributions of John Knox, a prominent figure of the Scottish Reformation, who played a crucial role in the establishment and spread of Protestantism in Scotland. The opening of the narrative introduces us to a significant moment in Knox's early life, highlighting his role as the bodyguard of George Wishart, a key advocate of Reformation ideas who was executed for his beliefs. The text describes the oppressive religious climate in Scotland under Cardinal Beaton, setting the stage for Knox's eventual rise as a leader of the Reformation. Following Wishart's death, Knox's commitment to the cause is established, portraying his character and the socio-political turmoil that shaped his journey into ministry and activism. The narrative not only outlines historical events but also foreshadows Knox's influential role in challenging Catholic authority and advocating for Protestant reforms in Scotland.
