Excerpt from Oliver Cromwell, Vol. 1 of 2 The drama contained in the following pages has nothing to commend it to the attention or the goodwill of the public. It has not the advantage of having fallen under the veto of the censorship, to attract the interest of the various shades of political opinion, nor the honor of having been formally rejected by an infallible reading committee, to procure for it at the outset the sympathy of literary men of taste. It presents itself therefore for the consideration of the public, like the infirm man in the Gospel, solus, pauper, nudus, - alone, poor and naked. It was not without some hesitation that the author determined to burden his drama with notes and a preface. Those things are ordinarily a matter of utter indifference to the reader.

Excerpt from Life of Oliver Cromwell, Vol. 1 of 2 But in this, as in all other instances where the triumph of faction is carried too far, or where the cause of truth is sacrificed to the interests of a party, a strong reaction took place, as soon as the bias was removed which had perverted at once the judgment and the feelings of the maple. The men of the Com monwealth were restored once more to pub lic favour; the virtues of Hampden, and the patriotism of Pym, became again sub jects of popular veneration; and the ablest writers were not ashamed to acknowledge, that even the Protector himself possessed many high qualities, both as 3 states man and a soldier; that he increased or maintained the glory of his country; and that he Wanted nothing to secure for him a place among the most illustrious of princes, but a just title to exercise the power which he had seized with an armed hand. In this case, as in the former, there was manifested a decided tendency to excess. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Oliver Cromwell, Vol. 1 of 3: An Historical Romance It is no slight evidence of the superior importance attached to the life and times of Cromwell, that while most of our legitimate sovereigns are allowed to repose quietly in their coffins, undisturbed by any other inquest than that of the general historian, the Lord Protector is constantly finding new and special biographers: and it is not less honourable to the character of that illustrious man, than to the candour of his recent chroniclers, that they nearly all concur in vindicating his just fame, by removing some portion of the unmeasured calumny and wrong which party rancour and religious intolerance had combined to heap upon his memory.
