The Inquisitional archives as a source of English history
By Cecil Roth, B.Litt., D.Phil, F.R.Hist.S. (Communicated 11 April, 1935)

The popular (and perhaps not only the popular) impression of the
Spanish Inquisition is that it was an organisation of blood and fire,
concerned with the enforcement of Catholic uniformity at whatever
cost.... Though I belong to the race against which its persecutions
were most strenuously directed, I could not fail to be impressed
deeply by the method, and indeed conscientiousness, of the Inquisition
procedure...
