Examining Scotland's position within the regal union of the 17th century, this book is an up-to-date narrative incorporating recent research, questioning the extent that Scottish political ideas were influenced by the new relationship with England, brought about by the union of the crowns in 1603. It asks what effect the union had on Scottish political elites and on the development of political institutions. While addressing these issues, the book follows the political narrative of this turbulent century, explaining Scottish affairs within a British context without losing sight of the very distinctive nature of Scottish politics. By the author of Bloodfeud in Scotland 1573-1625.
