Martyn Bennett's indispensable guide to the English Civil War deals not only with the military campaigns that spanned over nine years of British history, but also with the way war affected the people and institutions caught up in it. The English Civil War is one of the most crucial periods in British history. Martyn Bennett introduces the reader to the main debates surrounding the Civil War, which continue to fascinate historians today. He considers the repercussions both on government and religion, of Parliament's failure to secure stability after the Royalist defeat in 1646, and argues that this opened the way for far more radical reforms. He gives full consideration to the whole conflict, including its Welsh, Scottish, and Irish dimensions. Entries include biographies of the key personalities, key events, battles, the wars themselves, and the aftermath. From the St Giles riots in Edinburgh in 1637 to the restoration of Charles II on May 8, 1660, this book provides all the facts and figures that an armchair general would ever need.
