It's also just a Masters thesis so not particularly long, so I may not be able to go into too much depth. I’ve only just handed in the proposal so I’ve got a long way to go yet!

Are you confining yourself to 1649? Have you looked into who the scoutmaster general was at the time or Thomas Scott? Just curious, as I've been meaning to do both. I still don't know too much about early modern espionage, but it seems a good place to look when talking about intelligence. Anyway, the next phase of my research is going to be to start looking at the Perfect Diurnall, the Moderate (in particular), and other printed news to see if I can figure out who was sharing news with whom. It sounds like we'll be doing some similar research! This sounds like a great project. Are you confining yourself to 1649?
