In the second chapter of Thomas Babington Macaulay‚s captivating History of England from the Accession of James II, we witness the turbulent restoration of the House of Stuart. The sentiment among the populace shifts dramatically, turning against the Roundheads, the Army, and the Puritans. This chapter delves into the intriguing character of Charles II, exploring his ambitions to seek support from France in his quest for absolute monarchy, mirroring the grandiosity of Louis XIV, the illustrious French Sun King. (Summary by Jim Mowatt)
