Books by Jonathan Wright

Jonathan Wright was born in Hartlepool in 1969. He was educated at the universities of St Andrews, Pennsylvania and Oxford, where he gained his doctorate in History in 1998. He has recently written entries on crypto-Catholics and obscure sixteenth-century bishops for the NEW DICTIONARY OF NATIONAL BIOGRAPHY, entries on Atheism and the Essays of Ralph Waldo Emerson for Scribner's NEW DICTIONARY OF AMERICAN HISTORY, and published papers on Reformation exiles and the worm of conscience in the Renaissance. Over the next year-and-a-half he looks forward to dividing his time between England, Venice and Istanbul as preparation for his next book, THE AMBASSADORS, also to be published by HarperCollins.
