How important was Charles I's personal rule in bringing about the Civil War? How successful was the Protectorate of Oliver Cromwell? And how far was this a period of economic expansion? Graham Seel addresses these and other issues critical to a study of this period. Topics examined include: the nature of the early modern regime, James VI and I, Charles I, the Civil War, the interregnum, religious conflict, society and the economy. Regicide and Republic is part of the Cambridge Perspectives in History series. The book matches the requirements of the OCR examination specifications. It is suitable for all Advanced Subsidiary (AS) students, as well as students and undergraduates needing an introduction to the period. It also contains a document study section on the Civil War.
