History of the Commonwealth and Protectorate (v. 4)

The four volumes of S.R. Gardiner's History of the Commonwealth and Protectorate completed his monumental life work researching seventeenth-century Britain. They deal with the period between the execution of King Charles and the rule of the Major Generals in 1656. Reissued in facsimile form, this indispensible work available in both hardback and paperback. Volume 4 draws the threads of Cromwell's policy together, dealing with a number of major problems that confronted the Protector at home and abroad.
