reviewed The cradle king on October 04, 2020 The cradle king
I gave up on my first reading but tried again and persevered. And very glad that I did. It is a scholarly work, Both the Scottish and then then English politics are complicated and so many people come into the book that east to get lost. But great to get the balance of James VI of Scotland and 1 of England. With James so associated with the Gunpowder Plot, interesting to see that the author does not devote a huge amount of time to this . It is the lesser known aspects of the reign that appear in the book that are so well highlighted such as the mysteries surrounding the Gowrie House Plot of 1600, allegedly to assassinate James. And the influence of James' association with Denmark in shaping the 1590's witch hunts in Scotland. Certainly recommend this book.
