Help
Hi
I have started the history coursework titled Was it the weaknesses of the Royalists or the Strength of the Parliamentarians that brought around the defeat of the Royalists ( or something similar), I put some points down eg John Pym and his role. But i got the rough draft back and i don't think i did very well.
I have to expand on a few points like how the Scots helped at Marston Moore, you are supposed to have around 6 main points eg finance, military,leadership etc, if you could give me a few pointers and a few more headings i would be most gratefull.
I don't understand why i'm having so much trouble with this because my classics was fine even fun and i thought that was harder.
Thanks
Jamie
P.S. I was wondering if you looked at rough drafts as well as give advice if not no worries
Thanks.

Just to answer your question about us looking at drafts - afraid not, coursework rules are fairly clear on that sort of thing. You need to go through the draft with your teacher. If you struggle to find evidence to back up things that they suggest then do feel free to ask for links etc.

In case anyone was looking here for help...
There is a good page on Marston Moor here. It looks at the important role of ALexander Leslie, Earl of Leven. Marston Moor was a turning-point in the English Civil War as it broke Royalist control of the North of England. There is also a page on the Solemn League and Covenant between Parliament and the Scots. The above site is very useful for anyone studying the English Civil Wars.
The Channel 4 website has a a very useful page listing weblinks and published sources, although not very much with direct relevance to Marston Moor.
