Unrevolutionary England, 1603-1642, Hardback Book

Unrevolutionary England, 1603-1642 Hardback

Hardback

Description

What holds these essays together is the rejection of the idea of 'the birth of the modern world'.

England before the Civil War was not a country welcoming a brave new world but one clinging fearfully to an old one.

Change, where it happened, was not the result of a deliberate striving for 'progress', and the polity of pre-Civil War England was not on the point of collapse.

Parliaments were not dominated by two 'sides' in training for a Cup Final at Naseby, but were groups of people struggling with limited success to reach agreement.
