Life and Letters of Thomas Cromwell, Vol. 1 of 2
Life, Letters to 1535
Life and Letters of Thomas Cromwell, published in 1902 by the Harvard historian Roger Bigelow Merriman, was the first scholarly biography of Henry VIII's minister and the first edition of his correspondence. This first volume contains the Life in fifteen chapters, from Cromwell's obscure origins and years abroad through his service to Wolsey, his rise in the king's counsels, the break with Rome, the suppression of the monasteries and the Lutheran negotiations, to his fall in 1540; appendices print the early accounts by Chapuys, Pole, Bandello and Foxe. The second half gives the letters to 1535, beginning with Cromwell's note to John Creke and his letter to his wife. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
