Book Competition : Traitor's Field

[Ageing_Gracefully]

Traitor's Field by Robert Wilton is set during the English Civil War (why they call it the English CW I don't know as it involved every country on the British Isles!!). It is a story of spies, ECW battles, intrigue; all set with the background of the ECW. The book has been well reviewed by ancienturion and that review can be read here.

The competition is for one of 3 copies of this book and can be entered in the usual manner by completing the Survey Monkey entry form.

Competition will run until Wednesday 29th May at about midday. Different from the usual Sunday but hey, let's make life that bit more interesting!

Q3. Cromwell was dug up from his grave and executed! - quaint Olde English Custome !
