Product Description
Glenn Burgess here presents a convincing reassessment of the turbulent politics of seventeenth-century England. He rejects as oversimplified and distorted the notion that a growing polarization between absolutists and constitutionalists led inevitably to civil war. Turning to the great body of common law, political opinions of key figures, and letters during the reigns of James I and Charles I, Burgess refocuses discussion on the real conflicts and human complexities of the time.
