Laminated Jacket. General Editor Antonia Fraser. Introduction by Antonia Fraser. On 30 January 1649, Charles I was executed as a traitor to his people. Never before in England had a king been treated so cold-bloodedly by his subjects, and the event was in many ways a fitting climax to a reign which marked a fundamental turning point in English history.For Charles had stood for the Divine Right of a monarch to rule his kingdom without interference from his people.For more than eleven years he sought to use all the very considerable power and prestige of the Crown to reign without calling a Parliament. But as the author makes clear in this penetrating study, Charles lacked the determination and the skill to impose his wishes, and he never full appreciated the true nature of the forces which had built up against him. In the end, the King was to die because he would not compromise with his ideals or his enemies. Please email for further details POSTED AT OUR STANDARD RATES!!
