Little integrates the latest research from younger and established scholars to provide a new evaluation and 'biography' of Cromwell. The book challenges received wisdom about Cromwell's rise to power, his political and religious beliefs, his relationship with various communities across the British Isles and his role as Lord Protector.
2008 is the 350th anniversary of Oliver Cromwell's death and so a new evaluation of his life is particularly timely
Brings together cuttingedge scholarship that challenge the accepted view of Cromwell
Accessibly written to capitalise on the general interest in Cromwell and to appeal to Alevel students
