Lordship to Patronage Scotland, 1603-1745

Drawing on political, constitutional,religious, economic and social studies, Professor Mitchison outlines the growing bonds between England and Scotland, beginning with James VI's succession and culminating in the Act of Union in 1707. She argues that the Union has had a distorting effect on Scottish history, constantly prompting comparisons of the constitutions and achievements of the two countries, rather than placing Scotland in a European context. This book attempts to redress the balance.Mitchison, Rosalind is the author of 'Lordship to Patronage Scotland, 1603-1745' with ISBN 9780748602339 and ISBN 074860233X.
