The Greatest Escape 12+

🔖 Charles Stuart's escape from The Battle of Worcester in 1651 is one of the English monarchy's most significant events. Not only did his escape ensure the eventual continuation of the institution of the monarchy but the feat itself is truly remarkable. Charles dictated the account of his escape to Samuel Pepys years later and it is one of the finest primary sources of its kind.The Battle of Worcester Society is thrilled to be able to bring this work, once again, to the public domain. Along with supporting information and an introduction written by the society's President and former Chairman the text is presented in this book along with Pepys' notes.
