The royalist war effort, 1642-1646 (2nd ed)

The English Civil War remains the most prolonged and traumatic example of internal violence in the history of the state.

This book shows how such war was achieved and sustained, and how ultimately it was won and lost.

In a new introduction to this second edition, the author places his vivid account of the royalist war effort into modern historical context, bringing the reader up-to-date with developments in the study of the English civil war.
