Book Description
Excerpt from The Life and Campaigns of Alexander Leslie: First Earl of Leven Although the title-page of this volume bears the name of Alexander Leslie, my aim is less to offer a study of individual character than to illustrate that phase in the relations between England and Scotland which his career represents. For that reason I have dealt briefly with his life before 1638 and after 1647. Between those two dates he stands out as the Goliath of the Covenant. In 1639 and 1640 he appeared in arms for its establishment in Scotland. From 1644 to 1646 he fought for its extension to England. His career represents, therefore, Scotland's military activity against Charles, as Montrose's does her efforts on the King's behalf within the same period. Taken together the careers of Leslie and Montrose illustrate the characteristic motives of their contemporaries. Scotland presented no approximation to those types of political lunacy which called for Cromwell's drastic doctoring. While her ally tinkered the English Constitution, Scotland was intent upon founding the Kingdom of God as she understood it.
