The Satyr: An Account of the Life and Work, Death and Salvation of John Wilmont, Second Earl of Rochester - Hardcover
Synopsis
This is a biography of the most sexually explicit—and most strikingly modern—major poet of the 17th century. In the short 33 years of his life, Rochester loved both sexes wildly and indiscriminately, was confined to the tower for kidnapping an heiress, was released to fight a war against the Dutch, married and fathered children with his wife and his mistress, was banished repeatedly from Court for a multitude of misdemeanours, suffered the agonies of thrice being ‘cured’ of syphilis, and then returned in 1680, on his death bed, to the Protestant church.

About the Author
Cephas Goldsworthy, who was born in 1943 and educated at Oxford University, was a Barrister (QC) who specialised in murder and commercial fraud and then became a Recorder between 1987 and 1997. His wide range of interests included restoring antiques and music he played the flute and cimbalom as well as 17th-century history. He died in June 2000, shortly after finishing this biography.
