This book should be on the reading list for any A-level student of English History. It has catalyst-ed and catapulted my interest in English kings & queens (I only did history to the 3rd year at school, then opted for geography). I agree with all the sleeve notes, especially the one that says " history told at the racy pace of a thriller". Like the author, C. Spencer, I tended to have admiration & sympathy for the regicides - who were principled and brave men of fortitude. As a reader, you are hoping they wouldn't get caught. The book has inspired me to go to see The Great Hall in Westminster Abbey where Charles I was tried, a gallery exhibition at the RCA about Charles I & II and the battle sites at Marsden Moor (which I have visited - excellent) and at Nasby (yet to visit). I was also impressed by the wives of the regicides eg Lucy Hutchinson - how they used their network and spoke up vociferously for their men. An impressive, excellent, well written & researched academic "thriller". ps gory in parts but Spencer spares little in detail.
