Author: MULLAN, David George ed.
Title: Religious Controversy in Scotland, 1625 - 1639.
Description: Scottish History Society, 1998. Hardcover. No dj. Scottish History Society Fifth series, Volume 11. presents a collection of previously unpublished documents which highlight the dispute between the church government (period of first fifteen years of the monarch Charles I's reign in Scotland, England and Ireland) and which supplied the flames that ignited the spark of civil war in all of Charles' kingdoms during 1640's. Mullan supplies the background to the increasingly volatile debate identifying both the English and the Scottish conditions which led to the division between Laudian- Episcopalians and their Presbyterian and Catholic and other opponents. While recognising British concerns, he clearly describes the Scottish context by integrating his description of the documents with a broader historical summary. Very good condition. 230pp. ISBN 0906245206.
