The Life And Martyrdom Of Thomas Beket: Archbishop Of Canterbury is a historical account of the life and death of Thomas Becket, a prominent figure in the Christian church during the 12th century. Written by Robert of Gloucester, the book provides a detailed description of Becket's rise to power as Archbishop of Canterbury and his eventual conflict with King Henry II. The author chronicles the events leading up to Becket's murder at the hands of the king's knights in Canterbury Cathedral in 1170, and the subsequent reactions of the church and the people of England. The book also explores the religious and political tensions of the time, and the impact of Becket's death on the country's history. Overall, The Life And Martyrdom Of Thomas Beket: Archbishop Of Canterbury is a valuable resource for anyone interested in medieval history, religious conflict, and the role of the church in shaping society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
