Excerpt from The Life of Oliver Cromwell Some may think that Carlyle's "Letters and Speeches of Cromwell" render a life of him unnecessary, while, in fact, that work was the only cause of my writing this. A multitude of biographies have been written on Cromwell, but not one based on the general view taken by Carlyle. The letters and speeches of a man can never constitute his biography, though they may give us a correct and complete idea of his character. The letters and speeches of Washington, and his life, are two very different works. In the first place, the narrative is broken up by the introduction of letters and documents on various subjects, that must he placed in chronological order. In the second place, events are mere links, by which these are connected; while in biography, they are the writer's chief concern. In one case, the writings of a man form the burden of a book; in the other, his actions. The compiler of the former cannot condense, while it is the chief business of the historian of the latter to do so.

Excerpt from Oliver Cromwell: The Story of His Life and Work So far from this great movement, of which Puritanism was merely one manifestation, being the last of a succession of similar heroisms, it had practically very much less connection with what went before than with all that has guided us in our history since. Of course, it is impossible to draw a line with mathematical exactness between the different stages of history, but it is both pos sible and necessary to draw it with rough effi ciency; and, Speaking roughly, the epoch of the Puritans was the beginning of the great modern epoch of the English-speaking world - infinitely its greatest epoch. We have not wandered far from the ideas that guided the wisest and most earnest leaders in the century that saw Cromwell; on the contrary, these ideas were themselves very far indeed from those which had guided the Eng lish people in previous ages, and the ideas that now guide us represent on the whole what was best and truest in the thought of the Puritans.

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.
