Condition
Good condition. The hardback binding remains firm and square, with pictorial boards showing clear signs of age and handling, including bumping and wear to the corners, rubbing to the edges and some surface marking. The page edges show mild age-toning, but internally the pages appear clean and tightly bound, with no inscriptions or significant markings noted from the images provided. A sound and useful illustrated copy of this English Civil War chronology.

A useful and highly accessible chronological guide to the English Civil War, setting out the conflict in a clear day-by-day format. Wilfrid Emberton follows the course of events from the years leading up to war through the major campaigns, sieges, political developments and aftermath, making this a practical reference for readers who want to trace the unfolding of the conflict as it happened.
Arranged by year, the book covers the build-up to war, the major events of 1642–1649, the execution of Charles I, and the later events leading into the Third Civil War of 1650–1651. The volume includes a foreword by Dr John Adair, together with a list of personalities, abbreviations, bibliography and index.
Illustrated with black and white portraits, engravings, facsimiles and period imagery, this hardback volume is a helpful companion for anyone interested in the English Civil War, Stuart Britain, Parliamentarian and Royalist forces, and seventeenth-century military and political history.
