Description
Charles I's Private Life by Mark Turnbull offers a fresh perspective on the life of the King who lost his head. Beyond the well-known facts of British history, this biography sheds light on Charles' development as a character during his formative years and explores the mysteries surrounding his final days. A new candidate for Charles' executioners is proposed in this investigation, which also addresses persistent myths about his health and willingness to compromise. Drawing upon fresh viewpoints and contemporary letters, previously unseen by scholars, the book penetrates the veil of monarchy to reveal a brave, principled, and dutiful man who shares commonalities with us all. By examining Charles' relationships and personal struggles, this biography brings the reader closer than ever to the real Charles Stewart.
