Eikon Bailikee : The Pourtraicture of His Sacred Majestie in His Solitudes and Sufferings is an autobiography of King Charles I. Although the authorship is attributed to the King it is by no means certain that he was the author. Since its original publication on 9 February 1649, ten days after the King was beheaded by Parliament, many editions and related publications have been produced. This bibliography aims to bring together details of these publications. Based on a collections of over 400 copies and connected works, editions before 1800 are described in full; later editions are described summarily.
