Lambert, John
Lambert, John (1619–83) English major-general. He rose to prominence as a
ROUNDHEAD officer during the
ENGLISH CIVIL WAR. He accompanied
CROMWELL as second-in-command on the invasion of Scotland (1650). He entertained high political ambitions and was chiefly responsible for drafting England's first written constitution, the
Instrument of Government (1653). He supported Cromwell loyally (1653–57), but then resigned all his commissions when his own path to power seemed blocked. In 1662, after the
RESTORATION, he was tried for treason, and spent the rest of his life in captivity.
