Description:A biography of a daring and an unprecedented decade: the 1650sEvents moved fast in the 1650s. Something cataclysmic happened every year, something that would thrust the newly formed republic, its people, and its eventual 'Lord Protector' Oliver Cromwell, in an entirely new direction. It was a time of bewildering change and uncertainty, but it was also a time of innovation and opportunity. And, for the men and women who lived through these years, this period was certainly not an 'interregnum'.

It is a period that, for a long time, history chose to forget, or recalled as a failure.
