Cavalier Generals King Charles I And His Commanders In The English Civil War 1642-46

Previous studies of the Royalist high command have concentrated largely upon a handful of notable individuals such as King Charles himself and Prince Rupert. In this ground-breaking study, John Barratt re-examines these key figures, but he also explores the careers and characters of some of the lesser-known, but equally able Royalist officers. These men played decisive roles in the war; but hitherto they have received little attention. Among the extraordinary soldiers the author covers are Lord Astley, Prince Maurice, Lord Goring, Sir Richard Grenvile, the Marquis of Newcastle, Lord Wilmont and the Marquis of Montrose.Barratt, John is the author of 'Cavalier Generals King Charles I And His Commanders In The English Civil War 1642-46', published 2005 under ISBN 9781844151288 and ISBN 184415128X.
