The early Stuarts : a political history of England, 1603-1642 (2nd ed)

See all formats and editions

The reigns of James I and Charles I have been intensively studied in modern times and continue to be the subject of heated debate.

This "calm and judicious survey" (History) examines these historiographical controversies, but its great strength is that it goes back to the primary sources to understand, and animate, the central issues of the times.

This new edition, the first since 1989, contains new chapters on Scotland and Ireland, on the personal rule of Charles I, and on the origins of the Civil War.

In its revised and attractive new format this book remains the most accessible of the current introductions to early Stuart political history.
