Abstract
Children usually come into contact with the Stuart period when they reach the 9-13 age-group, although even 7-year-olds enjoy topic work on Pepys' London and its rebuilding after the Fire. The complexities of the Civil War would seem better suited to the 13 plus age-group. Little is, in fact, available for the 9- or 10-year-old, and the older junior or middle school child would have to use books, sections at least of which would be beyond the range of all except the most literate. It is regrettable that A. Williams-Ellis and W. Stobbs, Life in England, bk 3, Seventeenth-century England should have, alongside its most attractive illustrations, a difficult and very unreliable text. Newton is the subject of a Clarendon Biography, well written and well illustrated, J. D. North, Isaac Newton. There is a mine of information on seventeenth-century people in J. S. Millward, The Seventeenth Century, 1603-1714.
