Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Diary of Thomas Burton, Esq. Member in the Parliaments of Oliver and Richard Cromwell, From 1656 to 1659: Now First Published From the Original Autograph Manuscript, Vol. 1 of 4: With an Introduction, Containing an Account of the Parliament of 1654; From the Journal of Guibon Goddard, Esq. M. P. Also Now First Printed
These valuable historical documents I have connected, by very concise notices of the more important political pas sages, during the intervals of Parliament; referring, in the notes, as led by the remarks or arguments of the speakers, to various events, chie?y political, through a period not less interesting, and more extended. The whole, indeed, of that portion of British history so long neglected, at first in compliment to the restored Royalty, has now begun to attract, among liberal-minded and judicious enquirers, the laudable curiosity, which its national importance always merited.
