The Life of Sir Thomas More is a biography of the famous English lawyer, philosopher, and statesman written by William Roper in 1817. The book provides a detailed account of More's life, from his early childhood to his eventual execution for treason in 1535.Roper, who was More's son-in-law, had a unique perspective on the man's life, having spent many years in close proximity to him. As such, the book is filled with personal anecdotes and insights into More's character and beliefs.The biography covers many of More's notable achievements, including his rise to prominence as a lawyer, his appointment as Lord Chancellor of England, and his famous refusal to recognize King Henry VIII as the head of the Church of England. Roper also delves into More's personal life, including his marriage, his children, and his religious beliefs.Throughout the book, Roper portrays More as a man of great integrity and courage, who was willing to stand up for his beliefs even in the face of persecution and death. The Life of Sir Thomas More is a fascinating look at one of England's most famous historical figures, and provides valuable insights into the political and religious upheavals of the Tudor era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
