This sequel to Prince Rupert: Portrait of a Soldier examines the prince's later career as an admiral and general-at-sea. An astute portrait of an engaging, vigorous, supremely intelligent man and a vivid picture of life at sea in the 17th century.
Industry Reviews
Rupert of the Rhine is too often imagined in a kind of sunset glory fading before the advancing night of Cromwellian efficiency. Kitson's life-long interest in Rupert accords with his own military expertise. His subject emerges with brilliance undiminished by this corrective dimension. For anyone interested in the Civil War or in military history generally, this book provides a fresh and often unexpected perspective. (Kirkus UK)
