Of the four biographies of More that I’ve read, this one has made the best use of Utopia. Seriously considering rereading it after this.

“Henry VIII destroyed more things of beauty, and more things of promise, than any other man in European history”. (penned in 1936)
The contrast between the hope at the beginning of his reign and the result is breathtaking.

My fourth biography on More. This one seems to be the first modern one. I appreciate his spending the first tenth of this book examining the sources. The author already seems to have less personal animosity to More than Marius or Ackroyd, which I appreciate.

Thomas More was written by Chambers - a good friend of Tolkien - in the early twentieth century. You can buy this award-winning bio on Kindle for little more than a dollar! Incredible.
