Description
Excerpt from Speeches of Oliver Cromwell: 1644-1658
On the whole, the general conclusion must be that the original reports of these speeches are missing, that many circumstances doubtless conspired to make them difficult to decipher, and that there is no very great reason to suppose that our translations or copies of them are necessarily accurate. We must make the best of the texts left to us, but they do little justice to the man who seems to have been the greatest orator of his time.
