This set provides a detailed and intimate account of the
Elizabethan and Jacobean World picture. The volumes vividly convey
life as it was in the days of Shakespeare; King James; the first
voyage to the West Indies; the Great Plague of 1603; the Gunpowder
Plot; the Civil War, and the first impact of Galileo's discoveries.
In compiling these volumes, G.B. Harrison undertook a massive trawl
of original sources of British social and political history of the
period. Each journal contains a chronology of key events of the
period, unfolding as they would for contemporaries. This rare
panorama of one of England's most colourful periods in history
provides an essential background for enlightened reading of
Elizabethan and Jacobean literature, offering as it does, crucial
insights into influences affecting the literature and attitudes of
the time.
