''Cromwell: An Historical Novel'' is a work of historical fiction by Henry William Herbert that explores the life and legacy of Oliver Cromwell, a key figure in the English Civil War and the subsequent establishment of the Commonwealth of England. The novel follows Cromwell from his early days as a farmer and member of parliament to his rise as a military leader and eventual Lord Protector of England. Along the way, the book delves into Cromwell’s personal and political struggles, including his religious beliefs, his relationships with his family and advisors, and his role in the controversial execution of King Charles I. Through vivid descriptions and engaging characters, ''Cromwell: An Historical Novel'' offers a compelling portrait of one of England’s most complex and influential leaders.Not a man moved in his saddle, not a sound broke the quiet of their discipline, save now and then the stamp and neigh of an unruly charger, or the sharp clatter of his steel caparison. And now the cavaliers, within a short mile’s distance, having already cleared the broken ground, might be seen halting on the farther verge of the smooth space which swept away toward them in a gentle slope, unmarred by bush, or brake, or obstacle of any kind to the career of the most timid rider; when, with some three or four of his most trusty captains, Cromwell advanced before his lines.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
