The English Civil War
The English Civil War follows the breakdown of relations between Charles I and Parliament and the wars that divided England, Scotland and Ireland in the 1640s. It explains the political, constitutional and religious disputes behind the conflict, the rise of the New Model Army and the defeat and execution of the king. The book continues through republican rule and the Protectorate, showing how civil war transformed ideas about monarchy, Parliament and political authority.
