It’s taking me a long time to read because there’s so much new information that I need to double check and look up. But I’m getting a much better feel for British history in 1640s and 50s. I hadn’t realized how extremely violent the English civil war was. At that time, the population of England was around five million people, and around 200,000 died in the conflict.

Apparently John Milton highly praised the regicide and wrote extensively in favor of it. He also thought that the Irish were worse than barbarians.
