Throughout recorded history Yorkshire has been a setting for warfare of all kinds – marches, skirmishes and raids, pitched battles and sieges. And it is the sieges of the Civil War period, which often receive less attention than other forms of combat that are the focus of David Cooke’s new history.
Hull, York, Pontefract, Knaresborough, Sandal, Scarborough, Helmsley, Bolton, Skipton , all witnessed notable sieges during the bloody uncertain years of the Civil Wars.
