Product Description

Wolsey is, arguably, the first comprehensive book to explore the many contrasting layers of Thomas Wolsey`s life & career.

Making no assumptions, it looks at the real person in the cold light of his actions, & uncovers a man of contradictions & extremes whose meteoric rise was marked by an equally inexorable descent into desperation, as he attempted in vain to satisfy the tempestuous master whose ambition ultimately broke him.

Far from being one more familiar portrait of an overweight & overweening spider or another cautionary tale of pride preceding a fall, this is the gripping story of how consummate talent, noble intentions & an eagle eye for the main chance can contrive with the vagaries of power politics to raise an individual to unheard of heights before finally consuming him.
