A series of short essays provides brief biographies of the main protagonists, descriptions of the set-piece battles such as Marston Moor and Naseby, and information on the religious and political background. Above all, it aims to evoke the spirit of that divided era and what it was like to live through 20 years during which brother fought brother and father fought son in one of the bloodiest episodes in British history.
