During the English Civil War, a group of aristocratic rebels fought not just for a political cause, but for a way of life. They were the Cavaliers, and they have been painted as dissolute hedonists by their enemies. But John Stubbs reveals a far more complex and compelling picture of these men who valued loyalty, courage, and honor above all else. Drawing on original letters, diaries, and contemporary accounts, Stubbs brings to life the experiences of these extraordinary men during one of England's most turbulent periods. He shows how they endured exile, imprisonment, and the loss of their estates, yet never wavered in their commitment to their cause. Their stories are ones of passion, sacrifice, and unwavering principle in the face of overwhelming odds.
