The English Civil War
Author: Nick Lipscombe
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1472847164
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
'The English Civil War is a joy to behold, a thing of beauty... this will be the civil war atlas against which all others will judged and the battle maps in particular will quickly become the benchmark for all future civil war maps.' -- Professor Martyn Bennett, Department of History, Languages and Global Studies, Nottingham Trent University The English Civil Wars (1638–51) comprised the deadliest conflict ever fought on British soil, in which brother took up arms against brother, father fought against son, and towns, cities and villages fortified themselves in the cause of Royalists or Parliamentarians. Although much historical attention has focused on the events in England and the key battles of Edgehill, Marston Moor and Naseby, this was a conflict that engulfed the entirety of the Three Kingdoms and led to a trial and execution that profoundly shaped the British monarchy and Parliament. This beautifully presented atlas tells the whole story of Britain's revolutionary civil war, from the earliest skirmishes of the Bishops' Wars in 1639–40 through to 1651, when Charles II's defeat at Worcester crushed the Royalist cause, leading to a decade of Stuart exile. Each map is supported by a detailed text, providing a complete explanation of the complex and fluctuating conflict that ultimately meant that the Crown would always be answerable to Parliament.

The English Civil Wars
Author: R. C. Richardson
Publisher: Alan Sutton Publishing
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
This book conveniently brings together a collection of important texts in local history writing in the field of Civil War studies over the last three decades. The essays range in date from 1969 to 1994 and bear witness to the historiographical changes that have occurred in these years. They draw on a wide range of source material housed in county and urban record offices, in two cases make use of archaeological evidence and offer a wide geographical spread, with chapters on London, the South, the Midlands, East Anglia, the West and the North. All demonstrate that the experience of civil war in England was essentially plural and lacking in uniformity, and that local historians of the subject have placed all others in their debt.
