The battle of Marston Moor proved to be a turning point in the Civil War and perhaps the biggest ever fought on English soil. The Royalist cause was dealt a mortal blow and although the conflict continued for another year or more, Royalist fortunes never really recovered. As Margaret Toynbee asserts in her introduction, the chief responsibility for the disaster rests with Prince Rupert who failed to liaise with his fellow general, the Marquess of Newcastle. Equally, Oliver Cromwell should receive much of the credit for Parliament's victory. This book describes the campaign and the battle.

On 2 July 1644, six miles from York, 18,000 Royalists led by Prince Rupert, the nephew of King Charles I, fought 27,000 Parliamentarians in an attempt to relieve the Royalist force besieged at York. He failed. The defeat was catastrophic and the North was lost to Parliamentarian troops. John Barratt looks afresh at the battle and explores the disagreements among the Royalist leaders that had a devastating effect on the outcome of the battle.

The entry of the Scots into the English Civil War on 19 January 1644 on the side of Parliament radically changed the balance of power in the North of England. The Royalists in the North were forced onto the defensive and besieged in York. In a bold march Prince Rupert outmanoeuvred his enemies and relieved York without a shot being fired. However, when Rupert met the allied army in battle on Marston Moor on 2 July his cavalry was defeated by Cromwell's Ironsides who then turned on the Royalist infantry. The result was a hard-fought but catastrophic defeat; the Royalist army was crushed and their forces driven from the north of England.
