The Causes of the English Revolution 1529-1642 - Lawrence (Formely of Princeton University Stone - Bog

Dividing the nation and causing massive political change, the English Civil War remains one of the most decisive and dramatic conflicts of English history. Lawrence Stone's account of the factors leading up to the deposition of Charles I in 1642 is widely regarded as a classic in the field. Brilliantly synthesising the historical, political and sociological interpretations of the Seventeeth century, Stone explores theories of revolution and traces the social and economic change that led to this period of instability. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new foreword by Clare Jackson, Trinity Hall, Cambridge.
