Originally published in 1987, this volume filled a notable gap in
Scottish urban history and considers the place of Scottish towns in
urban life during the 16th and 17th Centuries. The first part of
the book is based on studies of individual burghs (Aberdeen,
Dundee, Edinburgh and Perth) drawing extensively on archival
material. The second part includes a discussion of the pressure put
upon the burghs by the town between 1500 and 1650, a process which
contributed to the destruction of the medieval burgh and examines
the burgh during the Scottish Revolution. The impact of war and
plague on Scottish towns in the 1640s is also analysed and much
emphasis is given to the relationship between town and country.
