Writing about “This war without an enemy”
Novels and short stories set during the English Civil Wars of the 1640s
In the year 1642
A king declared war on his own people.
A land was torn apart
Leaving a trail of destruction which 400 years has not repaired.
And brother killed brother
on battlefields where men were buried in mass graves.
Civil war
“stirring, accurate accounts of the battles at Edgehill and Roundway Down.”
