Vindication of the Character and Conduct of Sir William Waller, Knight is a historical book written by Sir William Waller himself and published in 1793. The book aims to explain and justify Waller's decision to take up arms against King Charles I during the English Civil War. Waller was a prominent Parliamentarian and military commander during the Civil War, and his actions and motivations have been the subject of much debate and scrutiny over the years. In this book, Waller provides a detailed account of his life and military career, as well as his interactions with King Charles I and other key figures of the time.Waller argues that his decision to take up arms against the king was motivated by a desire to defend the rights and liberties of the English people, and to prevent Charles I from becoming an absolute monarch. He also defends his military tactics and strategies, and refutes accusations of cowardice and treachery that were leveled against him by his enemies.Overall, Vindication of the Character and Conduct of Sir William Waller, Knight provides a fascinating insight into the mind of a key figure in one of the most turbulent periods of English history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the English Civil War, military history, or the political and social upheavals of the 17th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
