This is the story of one of those battles. Lincolnshire was torn apart during the bloody conflict as armies from both sides sought to gain control of the county. The market town of Gainsborough was very much on the front line at the outbreak of hostilities. In 1642 and the years which followed would see Gainsborough fought over several times by both King and Parliament. It would also play a small but important part in the rise of the man who was to destined to replace Charles I - Oliver Cromwell. In this volume, you will discover the events which led up to the English Civil War as well as a comprehensive history of the battle which saw Oliver Cromwell take on the might of a Royalist army. The Battle of Gainsborough 1643 is a must-read for students of Lincolnshire history and all those interested in Oliver Cromwell and the English Civil War.
