Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Last Days of Charles II My primary object in putting pen to paper has been to establish the true cause of the death of Charles II. I have therefore confined myself, as far as practicable, in what follows, to such matters only as bear directly or indirectly on this question. It would have been impertinent in me to discuss controversial matter in connexion with the diplomacy, the religion, the character or the lack of it in the man, in spite of its supreme interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Courtier of the Days of Charles II: With Other Tales Dwelling alone at the hall as lady paramount of the vast estate, she fell not into the usual faults of female sovereignty. Her rule was neither arbitrary nor capricious. The afflictions and vexa' tions of life had subdued rather than soured her temper. The ancient servitors of the house adored their lovely mistress, - the tenants respected her, - the poor (save when in the lady's hearing) never named her without blessings; for Anne Lovell had a proud and generous spirit, and abided not the servility of overstrained gratitude.

Download or read book Charles II Classic Reprint written by Osmund Airy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charles II Few words of introduction are necessary to this book. I need scarcely say that it does not pro fess to be a record in any completeness of the life and reign of Charles II. It is little more than the result of an endeavour to trace in outline the influences which acted upon the inherited qualities of Charles himself, and which made him what we know him to have been at thirty years of age and, in the second place, to give some idea of the illimitable confusion into which the domestic policy of England, her social morality, and her foreign relations, alike fell, because, at the moment when the reaction towards kingship in the House of Stuart had obscured other considerations, and when the loosening of all ties, social, moral, and political, had left the soil vacant for the seed of evil example, such a monarch came to the throne.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Silver Key: A Romance of the Days of Charles II I remember it as well as yesterday - it began so innocently, this day which was to change my life for me. I remember riding out of Paris under a yellow sunset sky and autumn leaves that fluttered noiselessly down before my horse's very nose. I remember that one struck me in the face, and I shook my head in brief, almost childish annoyance. Ah, I was unused to annoyance then, or so slight a thing would not have disturbed me.

Download or read book The King s Revenge written by Michael Walsh and published by Little, Brown Book Group. This book was released on 2012-08-28 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Charles I was executed, his son Charles II made it his role to search out retribution, producing the biggest manhunt Britain had ever seen, one that would span Europe and America and would last for thirty years. Men who had once been among the most powerful figures in England ended up on the scaffold, on the run, or in fear of the assassin's bullet. History has painted the regicides and their supporters as fanatical Puritans, but among them were remarkable men, including John Milton and Oliver Cromwell. Don Jordan and Michael Walsh bring these remarkable figures and this astonishing story vividly to life an engrossing, bloody tale of plots, spies, betrayal, fear and ambition.

Download or read book Charles II written by Antonia Fraser and published by George Weidenfeld & Nicholson. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of King Charles II is one of enduring fascination. The golden childhood of the boy Prince in the Van Dyck pictures gave way to an adventurous youth in Civil War England and abroad, ending traumatically when his father was executed in 1649. Charles II, King at eighteen, succeeded to `nothing but the name'. After his valiant attempt to regain the throne was defeated by Cromwell at Worcester, the King made his epic escape - to years of exile, poverty and humiliation in Europe. The `miraculous' Restoration ushered in a reign coloured by a series of equally dramatic events: the Great Plague, the Fire of London, two Dutch Wars, the bizarre Popish Plot, and finally the efforts of the Whigs to exclude his Catholic brother James from the succession, culminating in the King's unexpected triumph over them at the Oxford Parliament of 1681. A lover of women, passionate planner of parks and palaces and friend of the arts, this was the man who was to overcome the many problems of his reign and die not only in control of his country but in the affection of his countrymen. In this meticulously researched biography, Antonia Fraser offers important judgements and reassessments on central questions of the reign, such as Charles's relationships, his attitude to Kingship, his patriotism and his religious beliefs. Above all she has succeeded in writing a totally compelling narrative, both moving and exciting, and showing all the skills and insights which have secured her place as one of the foremost biographers of our time. `A rich feast of instruction, drama and entertainment' TLS `The fullest and most sophisticated account of the most charming and approachable of English Kings' OBSERVER
