PRODUCT DESCRIPTION


The 17th century was a period of revolution and instability with civil wars (1642-6, and 1648), the trial and execution of one king, Charles I (1649), and the forced abdication and exile of another, James II, in the 'Glorious Revolution' (1688-9). The clandestine world of espionage and treason emerges in numerous documents describing plots and assassination attempts, while three volumes of the State Papers are dedicated to the Gunpowder Plot alone.
