Masson’s Life of Milton and the Commonwealth Era Review
A critical review of Davin Masson’s The Life of John Milton, tracing its blend of biography and political history from 1643 to 1649. The piece notes Masson’s scope on toleration debates within the Westminster Assembly, the rise of Independency, and the era’s religious currents, praising the author’s careful research while warning the narrative risks overshadowing Milton’s personal story.
