Truly Cromwell deserves every Briton's praise as our most outstanding statesman and soldier. His military skill ranks alongside that of Napoleon, Caesar and Alexander the Great, while his political genius gave Britain a period of strength and prosperity that has seldom been equalled.
"No
sovereign ever carried to the throne so large a proportion of the best
qualities of the middling orders, so strong a sympathy with the feelings
and interests of his people...
He had a high, stout, honest English heart."
The words of Lord Macaulay ~
Author of "The Lays of Rome"
