Revolution and Counter-revolution in England, Ireland and Scotland, 1658-1660

Viac o knihe

"This book explores the events between the death of Oliver Cromwell and the Restoration of the monarchy. Manning shows that the Restoration was by no means inevitable after Cromwell's death, and describes the political battles fought over the future of Britain between 1658 and 1660." "The great strength of Manning's book is the detail with which he evokes the activities of ordinary groups of people in 17th century Britain, some of whom would not give up their struggle for a democratic republic."--Jacket
