ANDERTON, JAMES. - English Catholic apologist, layman, b. at Lostock Hall (Lancashire) in 1557 and d. in 1618.

He wrote various works directed especially at Protestants, among which: The Liturgie of the Mass; St. Augustin's Religion Collected from his own Writings and Luther's Life from Protestants. The work The Protestants Apologie, published in 1604 under the pseudonym of John Brerely, is sometimes also attributed to him. Generally, however, it is held to have been written by his nephew, the priest Lawrence Anderton.
