""Prisoner For Blasphemy"" is a book written by William George, which tells the story of his imprisonment for blasphemy in the late 19th century. George was a British journalist and publisher who was arrested and charged with blasphemy after publishing a pamphlet that criticized the Christian religion and the Bible. The book chronicles his trial, imprisonment, and eventual release, and also explores the larger issues of religious freedom and freedom of speech. Through his personal experience and the larger debate surrounding the issue, George argues for the importance of individual rights and the need to challenge authority in order to promote progress and change in society. The book is a powerful and thought-provoking exploration of the intersection of religion, politics, and individual rights, and remains relevant today as a testament to the ongoing struggle for freedom of expression and belief.It is a curious thing that such a fervid champion of religion should always attack unbelievers with private circulars. Yet this is the policy that Henry Varley has always pursued. He is a religious bravo, who lurks in the dark, and strikes at Freethinkers with a poisoned dagger. More than once he has flooded Northampton with the foulest libels on Mr. Bradlaugh, invariably issued without the printer's name, in open violation of the law. He is liable for a fine of five pounds for every copy circulated, but the action must be initiated by the Attorney-General, and our Christian Government refuses to punish when the offence is committed by one of their own creed, and the sufferer is only an Atheist.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
