This text is a modern biography of Richard Cromwell and offers a profound reassessment of his life and abilities. As Cromwell's successor, for instance, the role of finding a balance between the army, a war-weary civil society and a Parliament stuffed full of disaffected royalists and Presbyterians would have been beyond almost anyone; in effect, his father left him a hospital pass. It also looks in detail at the complex and difficult relationship between Richard and his overbearing father, Cromwell.
What emerges is the fascinating, untold story of a man who was both lead protagonist and survivor of an age of unparallelled turbulence.
