✦ Synopsis

John Rastell is most likely to be recognised today for his connection to Thomas More, whose son-in-law and friend he was. In A Bibliography of John Rastell E.J. Devereux shows that he was much more than this - a lawyer, explorer, humanist, trust servant of the crown, and, most importantly, printer of some sixty books.
