A Short Abridgment of Britane’s Distemper: From the Year of God 1639 to 1649 is a historical book written by Patrick Gordon and published in 1844. The book is a condensed version of Gordon’s original work, which chronicled the tumultuous period in Scottish and English history known as the Wars of the Three Kingdoms. The book provides a detailed account of the political, religious, and military events that occurred in Britain during the ten-year period from 1639 to 1649. It covers the Scottish rebellion against Charles I, the English Civil War, the rise of Oliver Cromwell, and the eventual execution of Charles I. Gordon’s writing style is clear and concise, making the book accessible to readers of all levels of historical knowledge. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Britain during this period, as well as for students and scholars of history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
