Boscobel: Or The Complete History Of The Most Miraculous Preservation Of King Charles II, After The Battle Of Worcester, April 3, 1651 is a historical book written by Thomas Blount. The book chronicles the incredible escape of King Charles II after he was defeated in the Battle of Worcester in 1651. The battle was the final confrontation of the English Civil War, and Charles II was on the losing side. After the battle, Charles II was forced to flee for his life and went into hiding in the English countryside. The book details the various hiding places and close calls that Charles II experienced during his time in hiding, including his stay at Boscobel House, a remote hunting lodge in Shropshire. The book also describes the brave actions of the people who helped Charles II during this time, including the Penderel family, who risked their lives to protect the King. Blount's book provides a detailed account of one of the most remarkable events in English history, and offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of Charles II during this tumultuous time. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in English history, the English Civil War, or the life of King Charles II.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
