Antonia Fraser seems to have a penchant for arguing the case of the unloved and (she would claim) misunderstood characters of history. She has written about Mary Queen of Scots and most recently Marie Antoinette, and in this biography she attempts to 'humanise' Oliver Cromwell.

About this product
Product Information
No Englishman has made more impact on the history of his nation than Oliver Cromwell; few have been so persistently malignant in the folklore of history. The central purpose of Antonia Fraser is the recreation of his life & character, freed from the distortions of myth and Royalist propaganda. Cromwell was a man of contradictions and surprising charm. The ruthless Psalm-singing General of the battlefields was also a country gentleman who, after his victory at Worcester, paused to hawk in the fields nearby; the most decisive and ruthless of commanders was also the passionate connoisseur of music. Of Cromwell's fitness for high office, both military and civil, this fascinating biography leaves no doubt. Under his rule English prestige abroad rose to a level unequalled since Elizabeth I. Yet his campaign in Ireland has cast a shadow over his reputation.Product Identifiers
