Michael Christopherson was the pseudonym for Jesuit Michael Walpole, who while living in Douai defended the teachings of Cardinal Bellarmine against the attacks of one of England’s royal chaplains. His defense was printed at the English College Press in St. Omer. He dedicates the volume to James I in an attempt to draw the king’s attention to the plight of Catholics in England.
