Killers of the King examines the men who signed the death warrant of Charles I and carried out his execution in 1649. The book places the regicides within the political turmoil of the English Civil War and the rise of the Commonwealth. Spencer Charles analyses their personal motivations, legal arguments, and the consequences they faced after the Restoration. Richly documented with contemporary sources, the work offers a balanced view of a pivotal moment in British history. It is aimed at readers who seek a factual, narrativeβdriven account of this controversial episode.
