In 1649, England executed its King. It was not a foregone conclusion. Why did Parliament win and how was the King defeated? 'A Military History of the English Civil War' gives a blow by blow account of the campaigns and progress of war in order to show just why the war ended as it did and how Charles ended up on the scaffold.
