Charles Coffin Little (1799 - 1869), was a U.S. publisher. His most famous action was co-founding and being the co-eponym of Little, Brown, & Company in 1837.
Charles governed without Parliament for 11 years after 1629, which were marked by popular opposition to strict enforcement of the practices of the Established Church by Archbishop William Laud and to the ingenious if disingenuous devices employed by the government to obtain funds.
Charles professed to accept the revolutionary legislation, though he was known to hold strong views on the divine right of monarchy.
Charles repudiated the charges, and his unsuccessful attempt to seize five opposition leaders of Commons in violation of traditional privilege was the fatal blunder that precipitated war.
