The Household of Sir Thomas More, (Paperback)

<p>"The Household of Sir Thomas More" is a celebrated work of historical fiction that offers an intimate, diary-style perspective on one of England's most influential and tragic figures. Written from the viewpoint of More's beloved daughter, Margaret Roper, the narrative captures the domestic life, intellectual atmosphere, and spiritual devotion that defined the More family home in Chelsea during the reign of King Henry VIII.</p><p>Through Margaret's eyes, readers witness the daily rhythms of a household filled with scholarship, wit, and deep faith. The book masterfully portrays the escalating tension as Sir Thomas More navigates the treacherous waters of Tudor politics and the King's Great Matter. As More faces the ultimate test of conscience against the power of the state, the story shifts from domestic tranquility to a poignant exploration of loyalty, integrity, and martyrdom.</p><p>Anne Manning's evocative prose recreates the linguistic flavor of the sixteenth century, providing a vivid window into the personal sacrifices and steadfast convictions of a man who remained the King's good servant, but God's first. This work remains a classic of Victorian historical literature, valued for its sensitive characterization and its insightful depiction of a pivotal moment in English history.</p><p>This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
