Reviews
The Flight and Adventures of Charles II
Reviewed by Sherry Early
This Landmark history book is not the best example of the series, nor is it bad. The narrative could have afforded to be a little more narrative, if you know what I mean. More story, fewer travelogue facts about where Charles ran to next.
