Barnstaple and the Northern Part of Devonshire During the Great Civil War (Classic Reprint)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Barnstaple and the Northern Part of Devonshire During the Great Civil War T was originally my intention to write a familiar historical sketch of barnstaple and its people during the great Civil War of the seventeenth century. This is mainly what is now submitted to the reader; but the story has, almost inevitably, expanded into a detailed account of the war as it affected North Devon.
