King Charles I of England and Scotland, an imperious and domineering monarch, went heat to head with the Presbyterian Scots who were in no mood to listen to new ideas, not even from a king.</p><p>Riots and rebellion swept the country and the King found himself at war with the nation. A resounding clash of religious faiths, a ground-breaking document, rebellion and a blood-soaked island.</p><p> </p><p>Sign up to Neil Oliver on Patreon to get exclusive access to New Videos Every Week and to help support this podcast.</p><p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/neiloliver" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.patreon.com/neiloliver</a></p><p>The series Instagram account is – Neil Oliver Love Letter</p><hr /><p style="color: grey; font-size: 0.75em;"> Hosted on Acast.
