_Cromwell's Bible._--I have seen it stated that an edition of the Bible,
"printed by John Field, one of his Highness's Printers, 1658," in 12mo.,
London, was printed by order of Cromwell for distribution to his soldiers.
Can any of your correspondents furnish authority for such tradition? It is
one of the most incorrectly printed books which I ever met with. In
Cotton's list I do not find this edition: he has one in 8vo., 1657,
Cambridge, J. Field.
