Publisher's Synopsis
""The Complaint of Scotland"" is a historical document written in 1549 by Scottish reformer John Knox, expressing the grievances of the Scottish people against their government and the Catholic Church. In this book, James A. H. Murray provides a detailed analysis and translation of Knox's text, along with an exhortation to the three estates of Scotland (the nobility, clergy, and commoners) to be vigilant in defending their public welfare.
