Reviews

For those who know the narrative of the civil war well already, this book will offer exciting additional insights...For newcomers to this territory..this is the book for you. Anthony Fletcher, History Today [a] fine and deeply researched study Anthony Fletcher, History Today A very good book... written with an enviable lucidity and calm authority John Morrill, Times Higher Education Supplement Donagan's War in England 1642-1649 is the first really systematic treatment of the military culture of the Civil War, seen from within: a study of what the war was like to live through for the men who did the fighting. It is likely to be definitive on these questions. Michael Braddick, TLS
