| Summary | "Domestic Annals of Scotland from the Reformation to the Revolution, Volume II" by Robert Chambers is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work meticulously chronicles significant events in Scotland, particularly those during the reigns of Charles I and the subsequent turmoil leading up to the Revolution. The book delves deeply into the socio-political climate of Scotland, highlighting conflicts between the monarchy and religious factions, especially the Presbyterian opposition to Episcopacy. At the start of this volume, Chambers presents an overview of the political landscape during the reign of Charles I, beginning with his ascendance to the throne and the subsequent tensions regarding church governance. Notably, the king's attempts to impose a liturgy and bolster the Episcopal Church face fierce resistance, revealing the deep-seated fears and resentments among the Scots concerning perceived Arminianism and a resurgence of Catholic influence. The opening illustrates the buildup of dissent leading to significant events, including outright rebellion, shedding light on the societal divisions fueled by the fervent religious climate of the time.
