Reviews

This book will be of interest to both specialist and non-specialist readers.[…]It is well written, clearly structured and very accessible. It is impossible not to be moved by the evocative dedication to the living descendents of the surviving men who were transported to the colonies.
*Archaeological Journal*

Rich with first-hand accounts of extraordinary events and individuals this is a real rarity among archaeological reports: a page-turner.
*British Archaeology*

[Lost Lives, New Voices] contains highly valuable and new information that historians of early modern Britain and Ireland will find useful. It is packed with illustrations and is written in an accessible manner. Attractively produced, it should appeal to a cross-section of professionals who work in the history and heritage sectors […] This book is a fresh and valuable contribution to the literature on the English Republic: it provides a rare glimpse into the lives of ordinary men whose fortunes were changed utterly on the 3 September 1650.
*Northern History*
