ENGLISH CIVIL WAR: A PEOPLE'S HISTORY

About this book

"This history of the English Civil War, culminating in the execution of Charles I, brings to life the people who fought in it, died in it, and in doing so changed the history of the world forever. Drawing on exciting new sources including letters, memoirs, ballads, plays, illustrations and material from private collections, Diane Purkiss tells the story of this critical era not just as the battle of ideas, but as the histories of the vibrant characters who conceived them."--BOOK JACKET.
