Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658) - the only English commoner to become the overall head of state - is one of the great figures of history, but his character was very complex. He was at once courageous and devout, devious and self-serving; as a parliamentarian, he was devoted to his cause; as a soldier, he was ruthless. Cromwell's speeches and writings surpass in quantity those of any other ruler of England before Victoria, and, for those seeking to understand him, he has usually been taken at his word. In this remarkable new work, Ronald Hutton untangles the facts from the fiction.

Kommt Suding, die als eines der größten Talente in der deutschen Politik gilt, einem Rauswurf zuvor? Zieht sie die Reißleine, ehe irgendein noch unbekannter Skandal auffliegt und die Partei in Mitleidenschaft zieht?
