The Life and Times of Thomas Stukeley (c.1525-78)Ashgate Publishing, Ltd., 2003 - 282 páginas Thomas Stukeley was one of the most colourful characters of the Elizabethan age, whose exploits brought him fame and notoriety throughout Europe. Described variously as picturesque, quixotic, cloudy minded, remarkable, and (by Evelyn Waugh) as a preposterous and richly comic figure, Stukeley remains a flamboyant and fascinating character in the imagination of succeeding generations. |
