What is Saint Thomas More: Selected Writings about?

<p><P>Thomas More is perhaps most familiar to us from his courageous struggle with Henry VIII, unforgettably portrayed in Robert Bolt&#8217;s classic, <i>A Man for All Seasons.</i> But that final struggle, which ended in his execution for treason, was only the crowning act in a life that he had devoted to God long before. <P>In the first selection in decades made for the general reader from his collected works, this volume traces More&#8217;s journey of moral conviction in his own words and writings. Drawing on a variety of More&#8217;s late writings&#8211;the extraordinary &#8220;Tower Works,&#8221; written in prison, his poignant last letters to his daughter Margaret, and his poems, private prayers and devotional works&#8211;this collectio<i>n</i> will provide even readers lacking a background in Renaissance humanism or history with a rich introduction to a startlingly modern man of spiritual principle. Also included is the famous &#8220;Life of Sir Thomas More,&#8221; written by his son-in-law, William Roper.<P>In the annals of spirituality certain books stand out both for their historical importance and for their continued relevance.
