| Abstract
|
:
|
This is the first Biography of Sir Simonds D'Ewes, Puritan, historian, and member of England's Long Parliament, who lived from 1602 to 1650. D'Ewes took the Puritan side against the supporters of King Charles I in the English Civil War, and his extensive journal of the Long Parliament, together with his autobiography and correspondence, offer a uniquely comprehensive view of the life of a seventeenth-century English gentleman, his opinions, thoughts, and prejudices during this tumultuous time.
