English author and diplomat Sir Henry Wotton (1568–1639) was secretary to the Earl of Essex and later became a favorite of King James I, who knighted him and appointed him ambassador to Venice. Adolphus W. Ward’s engaging biography of Wotton is both a compelling life story and a thoughtful study of Wotton’s accomplishments.
