The Blood in Winter: England on the Brink of Civil War, 1642 by Jonathan Healey
This book provides a detailed history of a specific time in British history. There were religious conflicts as the reformation has resulted in many types of protestantism. People have obtained more rights and question the privileges of the king. These are both great sources of conflict. Colonization and empire are also underway. Some Puritans have already set up colonies in New England. The conditions outside were not great. Streets were filled with manure and diseases remain. I had trouble getting involved with the story.
