The Wisest Fool. The Lavish Life of James VI and I, New in Paperback, Paperback/Steven Veerapen

In this new biography, the story of James VI and I is laid bare, and a welter of scurrilous assumptions penned by his political opponents put to rest. What emerges is a portrait of James as his contemporaries knew him: a gregarious, idealistic man obsessed with the idea of family, whose personal and political goals could never match up to reality.
