About the Book
In this vivid and richly detailed historical study, Jenny Uglow brings to life a dramatic decade in Restoration Britain under the rule of Charles II. The book explores a period marked by political uncertainty, shifting loyalties, scientific curiosity, and cultural transformation following the upheavals of civil war and republican rule.
Uglow combines narrative storytelling with meticulous research, portraying the personalities, intrigues, and spectacles that defined the era. From court politics and religious tensions to intellectual ferment and public celebration, the work captures the energy and risk of a nation redefining itself.
A substantial and engaging volume, ideal for readers interested in Stuart history, Restoration culture, and the social and political landscape of seventeenth-century Britain.
