Stephen K. Roberts has been an Editor at the History of Parliament since 1997 and was Director 2018-2020. He has published extensively on British history 1640-1660, especially on matters of government and society. He is a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, the Society of Antiquaries of London and the Learned Society of Wales, and is currently an honorary professor at University College London.
Patrick Little and his talented team have presented with a portrait
of Cromwell as an even more remarkable, and powerful, individual,
presiding over a government that was even less successful in
accomplishing its own aims, than has formerly been supposed.
