This podcast looks at anything and everything to do with the Wars of the Three Kingdoms.

In this episode I speak to the excellent historian and anthropologist Andrea Zuvich about Queen Henrietta Maria's years post 1649. It is the second of a two-part episode.

Andrea sheds light on Henrietta's exile, her relations with her children and the Restoration of the Monarchy in 1660.

How did the family react to Henrietta's attempts to convert her son, Henry, to Catholicism?What were Henrietta's thoughts about Cromwell's death and the Restoration?Why didn't she stay very long in Restoration England?
