In so doing, it treats crown finance as a study in kingship which reveals the dynamic, sometimes fraught, interaction of political ideas and practice. By moving beyond older stereotypes and treatments of crown finance as an institutional topic, Dr. Cramsie provides fundamental insights into James himself and into his personal rule."--BOOK JACKET.
