Philip Yorke

Philip Yorke (known as "Tony") is a former Fleet Street journalist who has a special interest in history – and loves reading intelligent, multi-layered plots and well-told stories. His books about the English Civil Wars – Rebellion and Redemption – have received widespread acclaim as they recreate the brutal and uncertain times of seventeenth-century Britain when a brother fought against a brother, and a King waged war against his people.
Francis Hacker, a renowned Parliamentarian figure, is the complicated, central character, and his extraordinary life and deeds provide significant amounts of action, tragedy, intrigue and surprises.
Recent reviews include:
• "Yorke ably demonstrates the irrevocable physical, mental and spiritual wounds war inflicts on soldiers."
• "Readers are rewarded with a tale as intricately interlaced as a spider's web."
• "Yorke masterfully crafts a solution that prevents characters from violating who they are and what they believe."
Married to Julie, with whom he has five children, Philip enjoys relaxing to classical music; reading the works of Nigel Tranter, Bernard Cornwell, Robyn Young and CJ Sansom; and supporting Hull City and Leicester Tigers.
He lives in Leicestershire, England.
