Utilising a plethora of primary sources, including swathes of archival material, the make-up of the Royalist armies is clearly laid out, contextualised and analysed, providing unparalleled insight into the composition and organisation of these forces.

Orders of battle and new maps for all major engagements enable the reader to chart the involvement of individual units and officers.
