John Stubbs brings alive the vibrant cast of characters that were at the centre of the English Civil War. From disastrous foreign forays to syphilitic poets, from political intriguing to ambitious young playwrights keen to curry favour with the king, Stubbs shows the reader just how the country was brought to one of the most destructive moments in its history.
