Description and Table of Contents

Description

With wide format pages to give generous margins for notes, the editor presents the latest Hutchinson scholarship in an introduction, and also includes a text summary, bibliography, selected criticism and chronology of Hutchinson's life and times. Lucy Hutchinson (b. 1620) was the wife of John Hutchinson (1615-64). She wrote "Memoirs of the Life of Colonel Hutchinson" (first published 1806) after his death to preserve his memory for her children. Hutchionson held Nottingham for Parliament as governor, signed the king's death warrant and was imprisoned at the Restoration. The book is an account of the state of the country at the outbreak of Civil War and of the conflict in the vicinity of Notthingham, told from the Puritan point of view.
