"This study provides a wholly new perspective on Welsh politics in the troubled decades leading up to the Civil War. It is the first study for over half a century to examine politics in Wales under the early Stuarts, and draws upon a wealth of new material in local and national archives." "The Politics of the Principality: Wales, c. 1603-1642 examines the structures of early seventeenth-century Welsh politics through episodes including parliamentary elections and the impact of the Thirty Years' War on the Principality. It offers a reappraisal of the controversial religious and financial innovations of Charles I in Wales and an original discussion of Welsh allegiance in the early stages of the civil wars." "This account presents a fresh interpretation of provincial politics in early modern Britain and explores Wales's unique position within the seventeenth-century state."--Jacket.
