Reviews

“In this book, a reader gets discussion of many rare works of fiction, which are nowadays hard to procure. … The meticulous work of bringing hundreds of post-English Civil Wars historical fiction (popular & unloved) at one place for discussion is what makes this effort praiseworthy and unique. This comprehensive book is a must-have for the readers, researchers and scholars of historical fiction in general and English Civil Wars in particular.” (Prashant Maurya, Rethinking History, August 6, 2021)
