No part of England suffered more, or for so long, as the Midlands dureing the English Civil War. Owing to its strategic position and divided allegiance, the Midlands became the debatable land on which the maid field armies of the contending parties clashed in the struggle for national supremacy, and over which Royalist and Parliamentarian fought for local predominance. This book vividly records the military action which took place in, and the part played by, the Midlands during the Civil War.
