Summary:"This book traces the background to the restoration of the monarchy in Scotland, explains why the Scottish political elite were so willing to relinquish power back to the king, and assesses the impact of the restrictive Restoration constitutional settlement on subsequent parliamentary sessions in the reign of Charles II. It is the first book to provide a detailed account of Charles II's Scottish parliament - who attended and why, what they did and what parliament's role was under an increasingly authoritarian crown."--BOOK JACKET.
