Today I present the next article on English Civil Wars. The war between King Stephen and Empress Matilda gets underway in earnest, with An Anarchic Opening – The War Begins.
Today I present Prelude To A Civil War – The Origins Of The Anarchy, part 2 of the English Civil War series, where we learn that it is one thing for a man to found a kingdom, but quite another for his descendants to pass it on. Brotherly rivalry sets the stage for a single shipwreck to drive the entire realm into eighteen years of war.
Today I completed my first entry for The Many Civil Wars Of England, on the first English Civil War – The Revolt Of The Earls. Good fun to be back doing some historical stuff. Next up is The Anarchy – that one might take a few parts.
