Publisher's Synopsis
The book ""The Complaint Of Scotland, With An Exhortation To The Three Estates To Be Vigilante In The Defense Of Their Public Veil, 1549 (1872)"" is written by James A. H. Murray. It is a historical account of the Scottish people's grievances against the English monarchy during the 16th century. The book is a reprint of a manuscript written in 1549, which was a plea to the Scottish parliament to defend their public veil, or the rights and freedoms of the Scottish people. The manuscript details the various ways in which the English monarchy had infringed upon Scottish rights, including through taxation, the imposition of English laws, and the suppression of Scottish culture and language. It also includes an exhortation to the three estates of Scotland - the nobility, clergy, and commoners - to be vigilant in their defense of their public veil and to work together to resist English encroachment. The book provides valuable insight into the political and social climate of Scotland during the 16th century and sheds light on the struggles of the Scottish people to maintain their independence and autonomy in the face of English domination. It is an important historical document that is relevant not only to Scottish history but also to the broader history of European political and cultural relations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
