The text known as The Memoirs of Edmund Ludlow was long considered an authentic account of the English Revolution – until Blair Worden discovered Ludlow’s manuscript and recovered the regicide’s real voice. At a workshop in Newcastle we discussed the feasibility of a complete edition of this manuscript.
