This book will provide the general reader with a sprightly narrative account of what happened in the wars, why it happened and what the consequences have been. It will cover not just the conflict of 1642-46 which the term is usually used to describe, but the wider upheaval up to 1660, including the second civil war, the execution of the king, the rule of the republic and the rule of Cromwell, and the return of the monarchy. It will also present the conclusions of the fertile research and controversies of recent decades.
