Charles II and his Escape into Exile

Capture the King

Martyn R Beardsley

Following defeat at the Battle of Worcester in 1651, the 21-year-old Charles Stuart fled to safety with help from loyal citizens including the five Penderel brothers and Jane Lane, Lady Fisher. Beardsley gives the full background to famous stories of the royal fugitive’s rustic disguise and concealment in an oak tree, traces the manhunt’s day-by-day progress and provides excerpts from Charles’ own account, dictated to Samuel Pepys three decades later.
