This historic book may have numerous typos, missing text or index. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1896. Not illustrated. Excerpt: ... later theory of psychology, popularized in R. L. Stevenson''s romance of ''Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.'' With all his boasted wisdom and astuteness, James knew as much as a troglodyte of the people over whom he nominally ruled. He was devoid of common sense and of moral principle. No dependence could be placed on his word. He was always boasting of what he called Kingcraft; which simply meant the accomplishment of his personal will by evasion, duplicity, chicanery, and crooked purposes. His belief in the royal supremacy was equalled only by his belief in himself. With every disposition to maintain Tudor absolutism, he had not, fortunately for England, the capacity to effect his purpose, or the skill to disguise it. His personality is not worth consideration, save for the fact that he brought the regal office into contempt, and entailed upon his son and successor a struggle and a crisis that could only be decided by the arbitrament of the sword. Churchill, in the second part of his poem of ''Gotham,'' depicts the character and reign of James in some trenchant lines; and says that he left behind, a curse to all his line, the bloody legacy of Right Divine. This portentous pedant and feeble autocrat set himself to resist popular rights; to impose taxes of his own will ; to give to Proclamations the authority of Statutes; to force Protestantism on Ireland and Prelacy on Scotland. He yielded to the malign influence and became the puppet of two mushroom noblemen whom his unwise favouritism had created ; Robert Carr, Earl of Somerset, and George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham. Both of them were adventurers ; able and accomplished, but unscrupulous; and of unsavoury reputation. Their scandalous profligacy ; their insatiable greed ; their vulgar display; their insolence and arro... W. H. S.
