A detailed and highly regarded academic study examining the archaeology of the English Civil War battlefield. Glenn Foard explores the development of battlefield archaeology in England and applies modern archaeological methods to the investigation of seventeenth-century conflict sites, with particular emphasis on the Battle of Edgehill (1642).
The work analyses bullets, ordnance, battlefield artefacts, terrain interpretation and metal-detecting survey evidence to reconstruct battlefield action and troop deployment. Richly illustrated with maps, artefact photography and technical analysis, this volume is an important contribution to English Civil War studies, conflict archaeology and military history research.
Part of the respected BAR British Series, the book is especially valuable for researchers, archaeologists, reenactors and collectors interested in battlefield studies and seventeenth-century warfare.
