There's a game on it that was pretty well-received in the boardgaming hobby.
http://www.gmtgames.com/p-119-unhappy-king-charles.aspxThere's also a fairly interesting argument that the American Civil War was, to a fair degree, a descendant of the ECW 4 generations earlier -- at the time of secession, many in the South liked to compare themselves to cultured 'Cavaliers'... which should have raised some red flags as they
contemplated treason... um,
performed their net assessments.
It was interesting to me: the fellow pictured in my Avatar was a hardline Republican in Vermont around the time of secession. His great? grandfather emigrated from East Anglia early in the 18th century -- fairly likely that
his father and/or uncles served the English Republic.
Also interesting: Goffe, Whalley, and Dixwell all gave their names to streets in New Haven, CT, where I live now.

Wedgwood, C.V.
A Coffin for King Charles: The Trial of Charles I sounds interesting. Wedgewood was an excellent popular historian who focused on the 17th century.
