The Lieutenant-General
View through CrossRef
This chapter chronicles Oliver Cromwell's growing influence in the military as well as in politics. By early 1644, Cromwell was commissioned as the earl of Manchester's lieutenant-general, formally recognizing his existing position as second-in-command of the army, and especially as leader of the horse. Like every other higher officer, he would only receive half the pay for the job as long as the war lasted, but he continued to be paid separately both as colonel and captain of horse. Not long after, he received a further honour by being added to the brand-new body, the Committee of Both Kingdoms, established by Parliament to direct the joint war effort that it was now making with its new Scottish allies. Membership here was a striking sign of Cromwell's rising status as a soldier as well as a politician. The turn of the year had gone superbly for him.
