Historien om den store salmedigter og biskop over Fyn, Thomas Kingo, er en historie om, hvordan det selv i 1600-tallet var muligt ved flid, klogskab og held at hæve sig fra de laveste klasser og op til de øverste trin på rangstigen. Richard Petersens biografi om Thomas Kingo handler om opvæksten i små kår som væversøn i Slangerup i Nordsjælland og om den unge drengs store evner, som skaffede ham en studieplads ved universitetet i København, hvor pesten ved hans ankomst netop var brudt ud. Den handler desuden om, hvordan håndværkersønnen steg og steg i graderne, om det danske samfund, som det så ud i det 17. århundrede, og om de mange historiske personer, han mødte på sin vej.Richard Petersen (1838-1905) var en dansk præst, forfatter og historiker, der udgav en lang række bøger om store skikkelser inden for litteraturens verden, kristendommen og historien.
