This book looks at London's provision of financial and military
support for parliament's war against King Charles I. It explores
for the first time a series of episodic, circumstantial and unique
mobilisations that spanned from late 1641 to early 1645 and which
ultimately led to the establishment of the New Model Army. Based on
research from two-dozen archives, Civil war London charts the
successes and failures of efforts to move London's vast resources
and in the process poses a number of challenges to longstanding
notions about the capital's 'parliamentarian' makeup. It reveals
interactions between London's Corporation, parochial communities
and livery companies, between preachers and parishioners and
between agitators, propagandists and common people. Within these
tangled webs of political engagement reside the untold stories of
the movement of money and men, but also of parliament's eventual
success in the English Civil War. -- .
