Singleton (Ed.), 1648 and all that: The Scottish invasions of England, 1648 and 1651. Helion.9781804513644http://hdl.handle.net/10034/628663This chapter reconsiders the origins, nature and leadership of the two main risings during the so-called civil war in Wales, namely the rising which began in Kent and which spread to Essex, ending in the siege of Colchester, and the rising which began in Pembrokeshire before spreading to other parts of South Wales, ending in the siege of Pembroke. It highlights the complexities in branding either pro-royalist or anti-parliamentarian in tone.https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/English civil warBook chapter
