Miranda MalinsRecensioni

Bridget Cromwell is the oldest daughter of an East Anglian farmer but their lives change when he inherits land and position. Now Bridget supports her father in his political and military ambitions even if they go against the rule of the king. She knows she is not beautiful but wants independence so hesitates when an ambitious soldier proposes. However their marriage prospers as they negotiate Civil War and politics.
This is a solid enough book. The premise is good, the story of Oliver Cromwell's female relatives is used as a backdrop for the history of the Civil War, and I really loved this aspect. The book itself is a little too romantic to be really gripping but it is entertaining.
