Charles The Second: A Historical Drama, In Five Acts is a play written by George Griffith and published in 1867. The play is set in the 17th century and focuses on the reign of King Charles II of England. It explores the political and social issues of the time, including the Restoration of the monarchy, the struggle for power between the king and parliament, and the tensions between Catholics and Protestants. The play also delves into the personal life of Charles II, including his relationships with his mistresses and his struggle to produce an heir. The characters in the play include historical figures such as Charles II, his brother James, Duke of York, and the Earl of Shaftesbury, as well as fictional characters who represent various political and social factions of the time. Charles The Second is a complex and nuanced exploration of a pivotal period in English history, and remains a fascinating read for anyone interested in the politics and culture of the Restoration era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
