No one would really expect the journalist Christopher Howse to side with the Protestant apologists in reviewing Duffy. Howse writes for The Spectator, The Daily Telegraph, The Sunday Telegraph and The Catholic Herald. This short review, in last week's Telegraph in his Sacred Mysteries column was a good overview of Duffy for the casual public. Entitled, Why Queen Mary wanted to burn' Howse noted:
He [Duffy] has done for the policy of Mary Tudor [...] what Henry Kamen did in 1998 for the Spanish Inquisition in a book of his own - exploding myths and explaining thinking of the time.
