Paperback / softback

Description

This collection of essays examines the struggles of the people of England with the collapse of civilization as they knew it.

As the country fell into civil war and near anarchy, the people sought out in word and action how to preserve what could still be preserved or to create new political, religious and social certainties.

The authors discuss individuals or groups who were soldiers, writers or statesmen of the Civil Wars or the Interregnum, people who were at the centre of power or in more humble and localized circumstances.

All of the authors take their inspiration from the work of Austin Woolrych, whose own books and articles focus on these very questions.

This volume is published in his honour.
