These three volumes comprise a new history of Scotland''s first parliament from the first surviving official records in the thirteenth century to its final dissolution in 1707.Denigrated by unionists as inferior to the English parliament and despised by nationalists for agreeing to its own demise, the Scottish parliament has been shockingly under-researched by Scottish historians. This new history will go a long way towards redressing the balance, not merely putting the record straight but making it visible for the first time. Written by some twenty-five leading scholars the three volumes will be by far the most comprehensive history of the parliament ever published.Volumes 1 and 2 examine the history of parliament under the medieval and early modern monarchs.

The latter describes its role in the reign of James VI and throughout the century between the unions of the crowns in 160
