Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Oliver Cromwell Oliver Cromwell was born at Huntingdon, on the 20th of April 1599. It was the dark year in Elizabeth´s decline, which saw the fall of Essex and Tyrone´s war. In the year preceding, Burleigh and Philip of Spain had both passed away; in the year following was born Charles the First. The sixteenth century, which had opened with such hopes, was closing in strife and gloom; the Tudor dynasty was in its wane; and the brilliant life of the Renascence had already deepened into the long struggle for conscience and freedom. Oliver was the only surviving son of Robert Cromwell, the second son of Sir Henry Cromwell and younger brother of Sir Oliver Cromwell, both knights of Hinchinbrook, near Huntingdon. His mother was Elizabeth, the daughter of William Steward and sister of Sir Thomas Steward, both landowners of Ely. He came of a race well born and of good estate: as did Pym, Eliot, Hampden, Vane, St. John, Hutchinson, and Blake.
