The Roundheads are supporters of Parliament and the Puritan cause, while the Cavaliers are loyal to the King and the Anglican Church. The novel explores the themes of love, loyalty, and betrayal as the families navigate through the turbulent times. The story is told through the eyes of various characters, including soldiers, spies, and politicians, giving the reader a comprehensive view of the events that shaped England’s history. Behn’s writing style is engaging and descriptive, bringing to life the characters and the historical period in which they lived. Overall, ''The Roundheads Or The Good Old Cause'' is a gripping novel that offers a unique perspective on one of the most important periods in English history.La. Des. Seiz’d on, secur’d, was there no time but this? What made him at the Committee, or when there, why spoke he honest Truth? What shall I do, good Corporal Advise: take Gold, and see if you can corrupt his Guards, but they are better paid for doing mischief; yet try, their Consciences are large.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
