Kings and Queens James VI/I

A title from the KINGS AND QUEENS series looks at the public and private life of James VI and I, using documentary evidence and various historical sources, with colour and black and white photographs, a glossary, further information lists and an index. James VI/I, the son of Mary Queen of Scots, was crowned king of Scotland in 1567 when he was one year old. 36-years later he also became king of England – the first Scottish king to sit on the English throne. As a child, James grew up at Stirling Castle where he was given an excellent education. This book tells you about James, his family, his friends – and the enemies that plotted against him.
