About the book

Friends in Youth by Minoo Dinshaw is a biography for adult readers.

Two old friends end up on opposite sides of the English Civil War, in this widely acclaimed history At the Inns of Court, the intellectual, literary, and social heart of early 17 th century London, many pivotal friendships were forged: few closer than that of Bulstrode Whitelocke and Edward (Ned) Hyde. Both young men were lively characters, industrious, well-connected, principled and optimistic.

They dreamed of reforming the government of Charles I, a young court with age-old problems, by restoring the traditional harmony of Crown and Parliament. This is the story of how their hopes climbed, overreached, and fell into an abyss of relentless civil war. This highly original, vivid and engaging book recreates the atmosphere, drama, players and ideas of what is arguably England's (and Britain's) most crucial and traumatic formative period.
