Sobre IBD

The previous volume, A Shameful War, ended in 1646 with Royalists forces scattered far and wide. The town of Bovey Tracey and its inhabitants were left to continue their own battles with weather, crops, illness, and general upheaval. A Time of Confusion now takes the story on during the years 1648 and 1649, where life in the South Devon town of Bovey Tracey continues.  There is little time for the ordinary folk to do other than pursue their livelihoods. A vicious bout of the ’Winter Fever’ carries off more than normal; a king is brought to trial - some see it as a mockery - and is beheaded. A Commonwealth is firmly established, and Parliament reigns supreme. The inhabitants of this small town are left to struggle on as best they may. In the south-eastern lee of Dartmoor, the weather is always a factor!

He had been anointed by God - therefore he needed no help, guidance, or advice from any other mortal. Those who had been elected to sit in parliament, finding that their services were surplus to the ...
