King James VI and I and the Reunion of Christendom

ISBN: 9780521793858 出版年：1998 页码：432 W B Patterson Cambridge University Press

This book shows King James VI and I, king of Scotland and England, in an unaccustomed light. Long regarded as inept, pedantic, and whimsical, James is shown here as an astute and far-sighted statesman whose reign was focused on achieving a permanent union between his two kingdoms and a peaceful and stable community of nations throughout Europe.
