1882. The story of Cromwell Oliver Cromwell who rose from the
middle ranks of English society to be Lord Protector of England,
Scotland and Ireland, the only non-royal ever to hold that
position. He played a leading role in bringing Charles I to trial
and to execution; he undertook the most complete and the most
brutal military conquest ever undertaken by the English over their
neighbors; he championed a degree of religious freedom otherwise
unknown in England before the last one hundred years; but the
experiment he led collapsed within two years of his death, and his
corpse dangled from a gibbet at Tyburn. He was, and remains, one of
the most contentious figures in world history. Contents: Early
