A year after the death of James I in 1625, a sensational pamphlet
accused the Duke of Buckingham of murdering the king. It was an
allegation that would haunt English politics for nearly forty
years. In this exhaustively researched new book, two leading
scholars of the era, Alastair Bellany and Thomas Cogswell, uncover
the untold story of how a secret history of courtly poisoning
shaped and reflected the political conflicts that would eventually
plunge the British Isles into civil war and revolution.
Illuminating many hitherto obscure aspects of early modern
political culture, this eagerly anticipated work is both a
fascinating story of political intrigue and a major exploration of
the forces that destroyed the Stuart monarchy.
