Description
The Oak-apple by Cynthia Harrod-Eagles is set against the tumultuous backdrop of 17th-century England. As the reign of Charles I gives way to brutal civil war, the Morland family finds itself torn apart by conflicting loyalties and bitter divisions. Against this complex and often fraught landscape, Richard brings home a Puritan bride, while his brother Kit joins Prince Rupert's Royalist cavalry. Their father Edmund struggles to maintain a fragile middle ground, but is ultimately thwarted by the growing rifts between his sons and his estranged wife, Mary. As the war grinds on, the Morland fortune hangs precariously in the balance. A gripping tale of family, loyalty, and the devastating consequences of conflict, The Oak-apple is a compelling exploration of one of England's most tumultuous periods.
