CavalierCast - The Civil War in Words
The 17th Century War of the Three Kingdoms was a momentous period in our history, and one which is extremely overshadowed and under-explored. CavalierCast is dedicated to bringing you informative podcasts covering anything and everything civil war related, discussing topics with a great variety of guests; academics, archaeologists, authors, curators, re-enactors, and TV stars.
Historian Mark Turnbull (producer and host of the show) has been fascinated with it since the age of ten. A Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, he has written biographies of King Charles I and Prince Rupert.
