Throughout, special attention is given to the personalities and political style of successive rulers. Their role in precipitating two revolutions is examined against the background of longer term constitutional, religious and social themes. In particular, the parallels between James I and Charles II, and between Charles I and James II, are clearly drawn out.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Lee Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0631194010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780631194019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley-Blackwell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/08\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 452\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.99h x 6.96w x 1.21d","brand":"David Lee Smith","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44059432157439,"sku":"9780631194019","price":155.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ebd892f1-7d9b-4bb1-ace6-26b6b4211c47.jpg?v=1685058190","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/history-of-the-modern-british-david-lee-smith-9780631194019","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
