About this product

Product Information

This is a historical study of the career of King James VI and I, as king of Scotland (1567-1625) and England (1603-1625), who achieved a union of the crowns as the first king of Great Britain, and who undertook to end the recurring religious wars. His peacemaking by diplomatic means was complemented by his efforts to foster closer relations among the churches. The peace that he helped to maintain by these initiatives, though cut short by the coming of the Thirty Years' War, was immensely beneficial both to Britain and to the other countries of Europe.

Reviews
‘… meticulously documented and well written. It fills a significant void in the re-evaluation of James’s reign.’Renaissance Quarterly, "In the era of the 180-page monograph so favored by cost-conscious publishers today, scholars will be grateful to Patterson (and Cambridge University Press) for the comprehensiveness of this work. If at times Patterson seems determined to share every detail he has uncovered, or repeats himself unnecessarily, this is nevertheless a book which will define its particular subject for a long time." Michael F. Graham, The Virginia Quarterly Review, '… meticulously documented and well written. It fills a significant void in the re-evaluation of James's reign.' Renaissance Quarterly, 'Patterson's ... prose is so lucid and his narrative so clear that general readers ... will enjoy and learn much from this book.' The American Oxonian, '... Patterson writes lucidly, treats other historians with appropriate irenicism, and should succeed in pushing Jacobean ecumenism from the margins into the mainstream of current historiography.' Journal of Ecclesiastical History, "While Patterson's main audience is other scholars of the late Elizabethan, Jacobean, and early Caroline period, his prose is so lucid and his narrative so clear that general readers, if they ignore the footnotes, will enjoy and learn much from this book." Ronald A. Rebholz, The American Oxonian, '… scholars will be grateful to Patterson (and Cambridge University Press) for the comprehensiveness of this work … this is [a] book which will define its particular subject for a long time'. The Virginia Quarterly Review, "W.B. Pattersons' erudite, interesting, and valuable book contributes to two waves of current historiographical activity." Jerrold Seigel, American Historical Review, "This is a substantial and interesting book on James VI and I as religious reconciler and political peacemaker....it is an important addition to the efforts to revise our historical judgement of James's reign....Patterson has written an impressive volume. His sure-footed use of extensive primary sources is very impressive, as is his analysis of James's theories and theology, and the ways in which they shaped the kin's policies and actions. This book is welcome and valuable contribution to the historical rehabilitation of James VI and I as a theologian and statesman." Caroline Litzenberger, West Virginia Shakespeare and Renaissance Association, '... weightily documented and authoritative in style ... it should definitively quash the old idea that James was nothing more than an ineffectual pedant who fancied himself a theologian.' Church Times, '… Patterson writes lucidly, treats other historians with appropriate irenicism, and should succeed in pushing Jacobean ecumenism from the margins into the mainstream of current historiography.' Journal of Ecclesiastical History, "Even though the work is scholarly, it is quite readable and would be enjoyable to anyone interested in church history. ...this account of his goals and his dedication in spite of disappointments is somehow quite contemporary. This book can be read as history or as a bridge from the past into the world of today." Charlotte Booth, The Living Church, ‘… Patterson writes lucidly, treats other historians with appropriate irenicism, and should succeed in pushing Jacobean ecumenism from the margins into the mainstream of current historiography.’Journal of Ecclesiastical History, ‘… weightily documented and authoritative in style … it should definitively quash the old idea that James was nothing more than an ineffectual pedant who fancied himself a theologian.’Church Times, ‘… scholars will be grateful to Patterson (and Cambridge University Press) for the comprehensiveness of this work … this is [a] book which will define its particular subject for a long time’.The Virginia Quarterly Review, "This is a book...which contributes substantially to the ongoing rehabilitation of the dreamer. ...this is...a book which will define its particular subject for a long time." The Virginia Quarterly Review, ‘Patterson’s … prose is so lucid and his narrative so clear that general readers … will enjoy and learn much from this book.’The American Oxonian, "...weightily documented and authoritative in style, Patterson's study is most convincing of all in its admiration of James...." Church Times, "This important, scholarly book is the latest contribution to the series, Cambridge Studies in Early Modern History. It should also be noted that the book is written in a style and with a felicity that is admirable." John Booty, Sewanee Theological Review, "...this work helpfully breaks new ground in understanding key dimensions of James's reign..." Trinity Journal, "Patterson's careful scholarship makes this book an important contribution to the study of both theology and diplomacy in seventeenth-century Europe. The book offers thorough discussions of several of the period's thorniest questions of doctrine and international relations. It also fits nicely into recent scholarship on James himself, revising perceptions of him in a more positive direction." Catherine Patterson, Anglican Theological Review, ‘This important volume is the culmination of many years’ work on King James and his ecumenical commitments.’English Historical Review, 'This important volume is the culmination of many years' work on King James and his ecumenical commitments.' English Historical Review, '… weightily documented and authoritative in style … it should definitively quash the old idea that James was nothing more than an ineffectual pedant who fancied himself a theologian.' Church Times, '... meticulously documented and well written. It fills a significant void in the re-evaluation of James's reign.' Renaissance Quarterly, 'Patterson's … prose is so lucid and his narrative so clear that general readers … will enjoy and learn much from this book.' The American Oxonian, '... scholars will be grateful to Patterson (and Cambridge University Press) for the comprehensiveness of this work ... this is [a] book which will define its particular subject for a long time'.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
