The Life of Thomas A Becket is a historical biography written by Henry Hart Milman in 1860. The book provides a detailed account of the life and times of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury who lived in the 12th century. Milman's work explores Becket's early years as a young scholar and his rise to power as a trusted advisor to King Henry II. The book also delves into the complex relationship between Becket and the king, which ultimately led to Becket's murder in Canterbury Cathedral in 1170. Milman's biography draws on a range of historical sources, including contemporary accounts of Becket's life and letters written by the archbishop himself. The book provides a vivid and engaging portrait of one of the most fascinating figures in English history, and sheds light on the political and religious tensions of the medieval period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
