9 Key Battles of the English Civil Wars
There were over 600 battles and sieges in the English Civil Wars (1642-51) between Parliament and the English monarchy. In this collection of resources, we examine nine of the most important military struggles that progressed the war, diverted it into Scotland, and brought the downfall of first King Charles I of England (r. 1625-1649) and then his son Charles II. Thanks to superior resources and the professional New Model Army, the Parliamentarians (‘Roundheads’) eventually won the bitter war against the Royalists (‘Cavaliers’). The monarchy was abolished and a republic was established with Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658) at its head, the Lord Protector.
