The Story of Sir Thomas More is a 1954 biography by film director John Farrow about Sir Thomas More.[1] More had previously written biographies of other Catholic figures like Damien the Leper.[2]

The Herald Sun said "the reader will enjoy every hour spent with this volume."[3] The Birmingham Post said Farrow approached the book "as a dramatist rather than a historian."[4]

The Chicago Reader said "the book is written in a sprightly, engaging and vivid style and is an immense joy to read."[5]
