This book considers the personality of Charles and the effect of his decisions as ruler. Beginning with Charles as a prince, Durston goes on to assess the monarch's role in the outbreak of war and the crisis of the 1640s.

* the context and prelude to his execution
* his status as a martyr king in the 1650s and beyond.
