William Morris

by Fiona MacCarthy
This is a heavy tome in terms of weight but is a very enjoyable read. Published 20 years ago it looks at the phases of life that Morris went through and is particularly good on his socialist phase-how he arrived there and the contribution that he made to the early days of the labour movement. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to know about the man and his relationships with Burn-Jones(a lifelong friend) and Rosetti etc. 9/10
