In this provocative study, Maurice Ashley offers a new perspective on one of English history's most controversial figures. Rather than a villain or a hero, Ashley sees Oliver Cromwell as a complex and multifaceted figure who defies easy categorization. Drawing on a range of historical sources and engaging with contemporary debates, The Greatness of Oliver Cromwell is a must-read for anyone interested in English history or political philosophy.
