A propos de cet article

Hardcover. Returning to England to try to reclaim his throne, King Charles II was defeated at the Battle of Worcester - but the battle to save his own life had only just begun. Pursued wherever he went by soldiers from the conflict as well as local militia, Charles donned peasant clothing, crudely cut his hair and tried to adopt a rustic accent. With the secret help of a succession of loyal citizens, he walked till his feet were shredded, waded rivers, coolly mixed with anti-royalists and enemy troopers - and, of course, hid in an oak tree. Never sure of who could be trusted, it was touch and go all the way to the coast and, hopefully, a boat that would take him to freedom. AUTHOR: History is Martyn Beardsley's big passion, and he has written books on a variety of subjects. He got the idea for (King Charles) while enjoying a pint (or two) in the George Inn Mere, Wiltshire, which sheltered Charles while on the run, and which has a King Charles room. His other non-fiction works include The Gunpowder Plot Deceit and A Matter of Honour, an account of Britain's last fatal duel. He was born in Nottingham, where he still lives with a half-deaf and fully mad dog called Max. 32 b/w illustrations The invaluable help of the five trusty Penderel brothers, who sheltered him, provided his disguise, and taught him to walk and talk like a Shropshire countryman.
