About the book

This volume examines the development of two sovereign nations over seventy-four momentous years, from the downfall of Cardinal Wolsey in England and the majority of James V in Scotland to the succession of James's grandson to the throne of England in 1603. The author provides a narrative introduction to sixteenth-century English and Scottish history, focusing on the political and religious developments in both countries while considering also economic, social, cultural and educational change.

First sentence: When we come to explore the England of four centuries past, we do not set out across some uncharted, alien landscape.
