This work contains the important letters and speeches of Oliver Cromwell, the English soldier and statesman. Cromwell became known as a resolute Puritan and enemy of the established church hierarchy. At the outbreak of the first part of the Civil War, he formed his unconquerable Ironsides regiment, which combined strict discipline with religious enthusiasm. He was a power in the government of England throughout his lifetime, and upon his death, was interred at Westminster Abbey, where he was later disinterred and hung on gallows. |
