The author argues that mysticism is not confined to Christianity, but the relation between the soul and Christ is a distinctive mystical experience; and it is specific in this sense, that this relation works out in a certain practice of life and certain development of character. It is this concrete effect of a true Christian mysticism which forms the subject of this book.

A fiery puritan in his youth, Cromwell became the most significant political figure in mid-seventeenth century England, leading the parliamentary forces in the English Civil War in overthrowing the Stuart monarchy of King Charles I. Dedicated to “The Young Free Churchmen of England,” the book explores his reign as lord protector, marked by religious tolerance. This portrait of Cromwell and his religious views will surprise and intrigue history lovers.
