Description
James VI and Noble Power in Scotland explores how Scotland was governed in the late sixteenth century by examining the dynamic between King James and his nobles from the end of his formal minority until his accession to the English throne in 1603. It includes case studies from across Scotland from the Highlands to the Borders and burghs, and on major individual events such as the famous Gowrie conspiracy. It is demonstrated that King James was a competent and successful manager of his kingdom who demanded a new level of obedience as a `universal king. This volume offers students of Stuart Britain a fresh and valuable perspective on James and his reign.
