Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the true story of King Charles I and his persecution of opponents both within and outside the church during his reign in the 1600s. Through first-hand accounts, the author presents a scathing critique of Charles's tyranny and his attempts to establish an absolute monarchy, while suppressing religious freedom. The author contends that Charles's actions subverted the English constitution and ultimately led to his downfall. The book explores the tensions between the king and parliament, the rise of Puritanism, and the complex religious and political landscape of the time. It offers a valuable historical perspective on the importance of civil and religious liberty, and the dangers of unchecked power.
