Download or read book Charles I's Killers in America written by Matthew Jenkinson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-13 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the British monarchy was restored in 1660, King Charles II was faced with the conundrum of what to with those who had been involved in the execution of his father eleven years earlier. Facing a grisly fate at the gallows, some of the men who had signed Charles I's death warrant fled to America. Charles I's Killers in America traces the gripping story of two of these men-Edward Whalley and William Goffe-and their lives in America, from their welcome in New England until their deaths there. With fascinating insights into the governance of the American colonies in the seventeenth century, and how a network of colonists protected the regicides, Matthew Jenkinson overturns the enduring theory that Charles II unrelentingly sought revenge for the murder of his father. Charles I's Killers in America also illuminates the regicides' afterlives, with conclusions that have far-reaching implications for our understanding of Anglo-American political and cultural relations. Novels, histories, poems, plays, paintings, and illustrations featuring the fugitives were created against the backdrop of America's revolutionary strides towards independence and its forging of a distinctive national identity. The history of the 'king-killers' was distorted and embellished as they were presented as folk heroes and early champions of liberty, protected by proto-revolutionaries fighting against English tyranny. Jenkinson rewrites this once-ubiquitous and misleading historical orthodoxy, to reveal a far more subtle and compelling picture of the regicides on the run.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Charles I was executed, his son Charles II made it his role to search out retribution, producing the biggest manhunt Britain had ever seen, one that would span Europe and America and would last for thirty years. Men who had once been among the most powerful figures in England ended up on the scaffold, on the run, or in fear of the assassin's bullet. History has painted the regicides and their supporters as fanatical Puritans, but among them were remarkable men, including John Milton and Oliver Cromwell. Don Jordan and Michael Walsh bring these remarkable figures and this astonishing story vividly to life an engrossing, bloody tale of plots, spies, betrayal, fear and ambition.

Book excerpt: The events surrounding the trial of Charles I have been remarkably understudied by historians, despite a wealth of information regarding both the proceedings and personalities involved, and contemporary responses and reactions. These essays submit one of the most momentous events in English history to rigorous scholarship, contextualise it in the light of recent historiography, not least regarding relations between the three kingdoms of Britain.

Download or read book Descendant of a Regicide written by Joseph Gough and published by Trafford on Demand Pub. This book was released on 2005 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about a descendant of one of the Regicides. A Regicide is a Latin word for King-Killer, the name given to those judges responsible for the trial and execution of King Charles I in 1649. After the Restoration in (1660) of the monarchy they were accepted from the general pardon granted by the Act of Indemnity. At the time 41 of the 59 signers of the death warrant were still alive. Fifteen of them fled. General Goffe was one of the three that fled to New England. Nine of those who signed the warrant and four others closely connected with the trial were hanged. Six others, who were deemed less politically dangerous, were imprisoned for life; some were later reprieved. General William Goffe, a son of a Puritan clergyman was a colonel of infantry and member of the High Court who signed the death warrant of the King. He was also one of Cromwell's ten major generals. The Regicides or King-killers as they were called, were after awhile, closely hunted, but the authorities and people of New England effectually concealed them from their enemies for years. I believe that General William Goffe changed his name to William Gough and lived in Maryland until his death in 1679. This is the year General Goffe died. This book is about William Gough's family who I believe are descendants of a Regicide. I will also tell what I believe are General William Goffe's English relatives. Letter from Author's new found cousin, LtCol Michael J. Gough, USAF (Ret) In August, 2001, after receiving a Gough history, I became consumed with the search for my heritage. I eventually joined a popular forum and discovered Joseph Gough helping many people understand their Maryland/Kentucky heritage. I could tell by his answers that we were of the same lineage. I answered his request to 'post my line' and was pleasantly surprised by his "Hello Cousin" reply. Since that time Joseph and I have reestablished our family ties while he has helped countless cousins learn their heritage. During the course of his research Joseph discovered coincidences that indicated a possible conspiracy of royal proportions. The conspiracy involved two fugitives. William Goffe was a fugitive from the King Charles II. William Gough was a fugitive from English religious persecution. Goffe was a Puritan compatriot of Oliver Cromwell. Gough was a Catholic gentleman trying to quietly live his life in Maryland. By the very nature of conspiracy, direct evidence is hard to find. Every person associated with Goffe was subject to the King's harsh justice. Therefore, no direct evidence could exist or all co-conspirators were at risk. Joseph has compiled a circumstantial case that William Goffe did not die in a cave or basement in the frontier town of Hadley, Massachusetts. Rather he established his Hadley cover story and then escaped to Maryland where he lived out the remainder of his life. Who would look for a proper Puritan in the Catholic Colony of Maryland? This is a history book with elements of a mystery novel. Read it for its historical content and ponder it's mysteries. LtCol Michael J. Gough, USAF (Ret)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural Secrets as Narrative Form: Storytelling in Nineteenth-Century America examines the interplay between the familiar and the forgotten in tales of America's first century as a nation. By studying both the common concerns and the rising tensions between the known and the unknown, the told and the untold, this book offers readers new insight into the making of a nation through stories. Here, identity is built not so much through the winnowing competition of perspectives as through the cumulative layering of stories, derived from sources as diverse as rumors circulating in early patriot newspapers and the highest achievements of aesthetic culture. And yet this is not a source study: the interaction of texts is reciprocal, and the texts studied are not simply complementary but often jarring in their interrelations. The result is a new model of just how some of America's central episodes of self-definition -- the Puritan legacy, the Revolutionary War, and the Western frontier -- have achieved near mythic force in the national imagination. The most powerful myths of national identity, this author argues, are not those that erase historical facts but those able to transform such facts into their own deep resources. Book jacket.
