| Summary | "The Governor of England" by Marjorie Bowen is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the tumultuous period leading to the English Civil War, specifically exploring the life and struggles of figures involved in the conflict, particularly Oliver Cromwell, amidst the tensions between monarchy and the emerging parliamentary power. The opening of the novel introduces a gentleman, later identified as Cromwell, who walks in a misty landscape, reflecting deeply upon his faith and the state of England. He is portrayed as a solemn character plagued by melancholy, feeling a divine call to action amid political unrest. The narrative hints at the looming conflict between the king and parliament, setting the stage for the major themes of duty, spiritual struggle, and the quest for justice that will unfold as Cromwell becomes increasingly involved in the political machinations of his time.
