The second volume in an acclaimed biography of Oliver Cromwell, from the capture of Charles I to the expulsion of the Long Parliament

In 1647, the Parliamentarians were divided. They had won the first civil war and the king was in custody, but disagreements over the way forward had led to a stalemate. As the leader of one party, Oliver Cromwell found himself again at the center of events.

In the second volume of his pioneering biography, Ronald Hutton traces Cromwell's career from 1647 through to his seizure of supreme power. These decisive years saw the execution of Charles I and the establishment of the Commonwealth of England, as well as notorious and savage campaigns in Ireland and Scotland. Cromwell's political and military leadership were well honed after years of practice, but this was also the period of his greatest ruthlessness and brutality.

This groundbreaking account reveals a different kind of Cromwell, showing how he navigated the many forces ranged against him—and rose to the pinnacle of his power.

I very much enjoyed this book. As a religious heir of the brand of Scottish Presbyterianism which features much throughout its pages, the book filled in a lot of blanks to my own knowledge of the period.
However, I felt that there was an obvious bias against Oliver which tended to interpret the majority of his actions and motivations in a negative light. Nor do I believe the author set Cromwell's military bloodier war record in the context of the rules of engagement for the 17th century. All that said, hats-off to.Mr Hutton for making a mammoth task so digestible and engaging.
