Thomas Cromwell: A Life by Diarmaid MacCulloch

5.0

A comprehensive and thorough biography of Thomas Cromwell, using an amazing wealth of sources - although mainly letters to Cromwell, rather than those in his own hand. Such a remarkable, erudite and intelligent man, although without any formal education, who rose to amazing heights. This was a fascinating and detailed account of as much of his life as we will ever know.
