Product Description
James VI and I has often been portrayed as a drooling, blasphemous, gregarious man with a tendency toward extravagant spending, and few historians have looked beyond these accepted accounts. With this engaging and accessible narrative, Pauline Croft takes the first truly balanced look at James's reign, the first monarch of unified England, Scot-land, Ireland, and Wales, exploring his rule in the context of all his kingdoms. Not shying away from the more contro-versial parts of James' personality and lifestyle, Croft also takes a thorough look at his political rule, from international relationships and religious tensions to parliamentary politics and problems posed by his multiple monarchy. This is an ideal introduction to an extraordinary life and monarch.
