1681 English Civil WAR 1^ed Dugdale Troubles England Barons Wars Religion Ireland

William Dugdale was 17^th-century English historian known for his works of antiquity of English aristocracy and monastics. While not his most notable work, ‘Troubles in England’ is a treatise written to describe the wars that influenced Europe and England during the 17^th-century. Dugdale correlates three wars – English Civil War, Barons’ War, and the French Wars of Religion – and how they related to each other. Interestingly, the DNB notes that this work was “written throughout in a strain of animosity to all who took the anti-royalist side.” However, this work is notable for its accuracy.
