Growing up amongst the ruins and stories of English Civil War Hampshire, it is no surprise that Warwick Louth became fascinated with the period. Warwick gained a Degree in Archaeological Practice from the University of Wales Trinity Saint David, Lampeter, followed by a Masters Degree in Conflict Archaeology at the Centre for Battlefield Archaeology at the University of Glasgow - from which the basis for this book was formed. He is a founder member, archaeological advisor and trustee for Glasgow and South-West Scotland with the Scottish Battlefield's Trust. He now writes, researches and talks on a freelance basis - both for enthusiasts and in academic circles - on Conflict Archaeology, Military History and The Wars of the Three Kingdoms. When not engaged in this, he takes part in military modelling, wargaming and is also a member of a range of re-enactment societies. This is his first book. He lives in Glasgow, on the fringes of the Kilsyth battlefield.
