Charles I's Killers in America Book Description
After the Restoration the men who signed Charles I's death warrant fled to New England, becoming folk heroes for America's earliest historians and novelists. This is the story of the lives and afterlives of these regicides, and the truth behind the attempts by King Charles II's government to bring the 'king-killers' to justice.
