Review
"Concentrating on James VI and I's early years as king of England, this study examines those years in the round, rather than focusing on the usual highlights, such as the Hampton Court Conference and the Gunpowder Plot." "In doing so, it shows how circumstances and events immediately after James's accession were crucial to shaping his approach to ruling England, and makes it possible to get much closer to understanding his reign in England thereafter." "Drawing on English and Scottish sources, both governmental and ecclesiastical, and using central and local records extensively, Dr. Newton shows how James managed the Elizabethan legacy he inherited in the light of his Scottish experience."--BOOK JACKET.
