The Household of Sir Thomas More

The household of Thomas More at Chelsea, in the diary of his daughter Margaret, from the good years to the scaffold. Anne Manning wrote it in imitation Tudor English in 1851 and readers took it for a genuine document; it stayed in print for eighty years. This edition binds 36 plates after Edwin Hayes, Thomas Ender, Edward Burne-Jones and Frederic Leighton, with 24 in-text illustrations restored and coloured.
