Through translations of documents concerning communal religious violence, political confrontation and war, this book aims to provide the means to study the French Wars of Religion through contemporary sources. Documents include: legislative acts of the period from the edicts concerning religion and toleration in 1560-62 to the 1590s; sources on types of religious violence during the early years of the wars; an examination of the massacre of Saint Bartholomew; and the breakdown in the 1580s and its restoration by Henry IV.
