Description
Excerpt from Oliver Cromwell: A History Comprising a Narrative of His Life, With Extracts From His Letters and Speeches, and an Account of the Political, Religious, and Military Affairs of England During His Time
While pondering these con?icting views in the heyday of a happy life, an overwhelming misfortune caused me to turn to the serious study of this subject. For nearly six years I have devoted the whole of my leisure to this work. Most of the authorities used were gathered for me in London with great pains, and they compose a collection which is, I believe, as complete as any other private library of Cromwellian literature, and which comprises all the books that were written by the Cavalier and Puritan historians, together with some twenty modern Lives of Cromwell. Such of these books as have been especially useful to me are mentioned in the footnotes to the text.
