He follows Cromwell from his early years through the Long Parliament, the Eastern Association, Marston Moor and Naseby, the quarrels of army and Parliament, the execution of the king and the government of the Republic.
Still regarded as one of the finest biographies of Cromwell, balanced and grounded in the sources. Download the free EPUB.
