Description
"The Scottish Parliament has long remained a neglected area of Scottish history, and this text can certainly lay claim to be the most extensively researched monograph on the subject since the publication of R.S. Rait's The Parliaments of Scotland in 1924." "The material is drawn from a wide spectrum of Scottish parliamentary sources, particularly from manuscript parliamentary committee registers, and data have been analysed from the printed Acts of the Parliament of Scotland. Development is charted within the wider context of the Covenanting Movement, Cromwellian Occupation, and the Restoration Settlement, and the central themes are (1) how the Scottish Covenanting Movement used the institution of Parliament in its struggle against Charles I, and (2) how the Scottish Parliament itself developed as a political and constitutional forum."--Jacket.
