In the SEPT edition of HISTORY TODAY magazine.

A great seven page article challenging some of the long held misconceptions about clothing worn during the English Civil War, the Interegum and Restoration. Fascinating read, especially given I dont know much about the topic other than the apparent misconceptions I had believed.

This is what the cover looks like....

Costs about 11 dollars but definitely worth the read. Some great pictures of Cromwell in armour as well as several extant pieces of clothing, a collar, hat etc.
