Summary
"As this book demonstrates, the English Civil Wars are a story of campaigns and battles, and of the shifting fortunes of war." "Illustrated throughout with contemporary pictures of events and authentic reconstructions, this book has been written by an expert historian of the period for the non-specialist reader. It narrates the course of the Civil Wars through the campaigns and battles along with the political and social background. The author captures the great names of the English Civil Wars including of course Charles 1, Prince Rupert and Oliver Cromwell as well as the influential commanders, politicians and others who fought and intrigued in what was to be a conclusive turning point for the British people."--Jacket.
