Title: Charles I (Penguin Monarchs): An Abbreviated Life Series: #4 of Penguin Monarchs Author: Mark Kishlansky Narrator: John Sackville Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 30 minutes Release date: June 28, 2018 Genres: History & Culture Publisher's Summary: Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Charles I: An Abbreviated Life by Mark Kishlansky, read by John Sackville. The tragedy of Charles I dominates one of the most strange and painful periods in British history as the whole island tore itself apart over a deadly, entangled series of religious and political disputes. In Mark Kishlansky's brilliant account it is never in doubt that Charles created his own catastrophe, but he was nonetheless opposed by men with far fewer scruples and less consistency who for often quite contradictory reasons conspired to destroy him. This is a remarkable portrait of one of the most talented, thoughtful, loyal, moral, artistically alert and yet, somehow, disastrous of all this country's rulers.
