Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revisionist history showing a gradual build-up of opposition and a drift to conflict which few expected or wanted.

  • Author : Timothy Venning
  • Publisher : Pen and Sword
  • Release : 2015-02-28
  • ISBN : 1473827825
  • Pages : 268 pages

Download or read book The English Civil War written by Timothy Venning and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2015-02-28 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With hindsight, the victory of Parliamentarian forces over the Royalists in the English Civil War may seem inevitable but this outcome was not a foregone conclusion. Timothy Venning explores many of the turning points and discusses how they might so easily have played out differently. ?What if, for example, Charles I had capitalized on his victory at Edgehill by attacking London without delay? Could this have ended the war in 1642? His actual advance on the capital in 1643 failed but came close to causing a Parliamentarian collapse Ð how could it have succeeded and what then? Among the many other scenarios, full consideration is given to the role of Ireland (what if Papal meddling had not prevented Irish Catholics aiding Charles?) and Scotland (how might Montrose's Scottish loyalists have neutralized the Covenanters?). The author analyses the plausible possibilities in each thread, throwing light on the role of chance and underlying factors in the real outcome, as well as what might easily have been different.

Book The Debate on the English Revolution

Download or read book The Debate on the English Revolution written by R. C. Richardson and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 1998-12-15 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This firmly established essential guide to the literature in the field appears here in a much revised third edition. New chapters are included on twentieth-century historians’ treatments of social complexities, politics, political culture and revisionism, and on the Revolution’s unstoppable reverberations. All the other chapters have been amended and recast to take account of recent publications. The book provides a searching re-examination of why the English Revolution remains such a provocatively controversial subject and analyzes the different ways in which historians over the last three centuries have tried to explain its causes, course and consequences. Clarendon, Hume, Macaulay, Gardiner, Tawney, Hill, and the present-day revisionists are given extended treatment, while discussion of the work of numerous other historians is integrated into a coherent, informative and immensely readable survey.

Book The British Civil War

    Book Details:
  • Author : Trevor Royle
  • Publisher : Macmillan
  • Release : 2004
  • ISBN : 0312292937
  • Pages : 907 pages

Download or read book The British Civil War written by Trevor Royle and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2004 with total page 907 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The entirety of the British Civil War has never been covered in a single volume--until now. While it is usually seen as an English conflict, Royle paints the picture on a large canvas to show that it engulfed the entirety of Great Britain. While the war began as the result of the Scots' unwillingness to accept Charles I's prayer book, their obstinacy inspired the Irish Catholics to rise against their English and Scot oppressors with the result that fourteen years internecine fighting was to be the norm for these islands. This is grand narrative military history at its best and a monumental achievement.
