Why read it?
1 author picked Civil War as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A personal favorite as I bought this book as a teenager during the 350th-anniversary commemorations of the civil wars in the 1990s. An underrated book and an excellent introduction to the conflict for anyone interested in the period. Covering major events in Scotland, England, and Ireland it has a multitude of beautiful colorful illustrations that bring the period to life. The main narrative is interspersed with text boxes focusing on fascinating individuals, events, and cultural and social aspects conveying the richness and diversity of the conflict.
From Kirsteen's list on he Wars of the Three Kingdoms 1637-1653.
