Jessie Childs tells the dramatic story of the siege of Basing House, one of the longest and most significant sieges of the English Civil War. Drawing on extensive archival research, contemporary letters and eyewitness accounts, she follows the experiences of the people who lived, fought and died during the conflict, bringing to life both the military campaign and the human cost of civil war. Beautifully illustrated throughout, this acclaimed work combines rigorous scholarship with engaging narrative and is widely regarded as one of the finest modern histories of the period.
