An essential guide to a subject of ever-growing interest - the physical remains of the devastating 17th century English Civil War. With more than 80 photos, drawing and maps this covers the whole conflict and its major battles, sieges and skirmishes.

The 17th century English Civil War was the most devastating conflict that England has seen - leaving a trail of battles, sieges and skirmishes from Cornwall to Lancashire, and from the wolds of Lincolnshire to the wilds of Wales. Many of the scars of the conflict are still visible in the ruins of destroyed houses or slighted castles but others, as archaeologist and author Peter Harrington writes are ‘buried landscapes of war’. As modern archaeology begins to uncover such sites, this volume is an essential guide to the subject. Battlefields, town walls, churches, castles and great houses all come under Harrington’s careful scrutiny; and his book is also accompanied b y more than 80 photos, maps, plans and drawings. A must-read for any Civil War buff.
