Abstract
This electronic publication provides a detailed document analysis of a specific letter written by Oliver Cromwell for which the original (in Cromwell's own hand) survives, namely the letter which he wrote to his brother-in-law shortly after the battle of Marston Moor of 2 July 1644 and describing the nature and consequences of that engagement. It examines in detail the contents, language, meaning and interpretation of the letter and also explores the different historical interpretations which have been placed upon it.
