- Summary
- "Between 1642 and 1646 two armies fought for control of South-west England in one of the decisive confrontations of the English Civil Wars. Royalists loyal to King Charles I clashed with the forces of Parliament in a series of hard-fought campaigns that crisscrossed the West Country landscape ... John Barratt's account of this bloody and disruptive phase in the West Country's history offers a graphic description of the engagements themselves and takes the reader on a tour of the battlefields"--Page 4 of cover.
