Book Reviews of A Man for All Seasons

Book Review: Outstanding Historical Drama
Summary: 5 Stars

This excellent play explores the conflict between Thomas More and Henry VIII over the break with Rome and the establsihment of the Church of England. The well known story is told primarily through the perspective of More's resolve to stand on his principles despite pressure from a variety of sources. The play uses the political intrigue and the sycophantic characters surrounding a monarch with absolute power to show More as a tower of strength as he refuses to bow to power and compromise his beliefs.
The Movie version with Paul Scofield in the lead is equally remarkable and follows the play without much embellishment.

Summary of A Man for All Seasons

The classic play about Sir Thomas More, the Lord chancellor who refused to compromise and was executed by Henry VIII.
