Book Description
Excerpt from Life of Oliver Cromwell This book attempts a true and unprejudiced picture of a great and good man - a man who, with some marked faults, was distinguished by eminent virtues - who was great in arms and in statesmanship; and, in his views of religious and civil liberty, stood a century in advance of his times; and who, from early manhood to his death, feared and served his God with an earnestness of purpose and a depth and constancy of devotion rarely surpassed. It will be seen that the author has made free use of available resources. The various English histories have not, of course, been neglected.
