520			_aMayflowerThe illegal underground movement of Protestant separatists from Elizabeth Is Church of England is a story of subterfuge and danger, arrests and interrogations, prison and executions. It starts with Queen Marys attempts to burn Protestantism out of England, which created a Protestant underground. Later, when Elizabeths Protestant reformation didnt go far enough, radicals recreated that underground, meeting illegally throughout England, facing prison and death for their crimes. They went into exile in the Netherlands, where they lived in povertyand finally to the New World. Historian Stephen Tomkins tells this fascinating storyone that is rarely told as an important piece of English, as well as American, historythat is full of contemporary relevance: religious violence, the threat to national security, freedom of religion, and tolerance of dangerous opinions.
