Arms and Armour of the English Civil Wars
Keith Dowen
The English Civil Wars tore families and friendships apart, setting
father against son and brother against brother. Raging across
England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, the conflict was the greatest
political upheaval in the British Isles in six hundred years, and
led directly to the execution of King Charles I in 1649. Keith
Dowen tells the absorbing story of the arms and armour of the civil
wars, and explains how emerging weaponry contributed to some of the
most well-known battles in British history.
The book forms part of a series of introductions to aspects of the
Royal Armouries’ collection of arms and armour. Written by
specialists in the field, they are packed full of fascinating
information and stunning photography.
