Oliver Cromwell's Biography

Oliver Cromwell (25 April 1599 – 3 September 1658) was an English military and political leader and later Lord Protector of the Commonwealth of England, Scotland and Ireland. Born into the middle gentry, he was relatively obscure for the first 40 years of his life. After undergoing a religious conversion in the 1630s, Cromwell became an independent puritan, taking a generally (but not completely) tolerant view towards the many Protestant sects of his period. An intensely religious man—a self-styled Puritan Moses—he fervently believed God was guiding his victories.

    Oliver Cromwell: Sincerity. “I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken.” Not, you'd agree, the usual tone of political debate today. One reason for despising the political class as a whole is that politicians
