Thomas More: A Biography

Over the centuries, biographers of Thomas More have always praised him and made him an example for their own times. He was a man for all seasons. This Tudor prelate and Lord Chancellor of England shared human qualities identifiable in all ages - pride, love, ambition, generosity, hypocrisy, and greed. He was less than common because he was witty and a great storyteller - the best between Chaucer and Shakespeare. Truly, he was a Renaissance man with the contradictions such praise imposes on a towering figure. In Richard Marius"s authoritative and engaging portrait, Sir Thomas More, the martyr and brilliant public figure, is a lesson for our season.
