Progresses, Processions, and Royal Entries of King Charles I, 1625-1642

Beschreibung

The first study to explore the progresses of Charles I offering a full account of the king's travels. Throwing new light on Charles' accessibility to his subjects, Keenan argues that he was not as distanced as has often been argued, but was well aware of the importance of public ceremony and more widely travelled than his ancestors.
