Rochester
After launching a new website for the Charles Williams Society, I was feeling a completist urge and picked up this little-known biography of the Earl of Rochester. I needed a better reason.
It's a pseudo-biography, but it assumes:
A. You already know who Rochester was, what he did, and the basic outlines of his life, and
B. You can think like Williams.
Since I lack the historical background, I found this nearly incomprehensible. And dull. I'll try again, and next time I'll Wikipedia Rochester first.
