The Battle of Worcester

As august progressed, charles and leslie continued to march south. But like i say, they found further recruitment all but impossible. Sir thomas fair briefly came out of retirement to insure that yorkshire remained solidly for parliament. And lambert and harrison skirmished and harassed the scots from all sides. So it had to have been a fairly demoralized army that finally wound up in worcester at the end of august. In all cromwell now led an army 31 thousand strong.
