The Last Letters Of Blessed Thomas More

The Last Letters of Blessed Thomas More is a collection of letters written by the renowned English statesman and humanist, Thomas More, during the final years of his life. More was a close friend and advisor to King Henry VIII, but he famously fell out of favor with the monarch after refusing to acknowledge his divorce and remarriage. More was eventually imprisoned in the Tower of London and sentenced to death for treason. The letters in this collection were written to friends and family during More's imprisonment and leading up to his execution. They offer a glimpse into More's spiritual and emotional state during this difficult time, as well as his unwavering commitment to his Catholic faith. In addition to the letters themselves, the book includes an introduction that provides historical context and biographical information about More, as well as footnotes that explain any obscure references or historical details. The Last Letters of Blessed Thomas More is a fascinating and poignant look at one of the most important figures in English history, and a testament to the enduring power of faith and conscience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
