The political, social and economic changes which overtook England
in the early seventeenth century forced Parliament to adapt from a
medieval institution into one with authority over all facets of
society; studies focus on particular cases. The political, social
and economic changes which overtook England in the early
seventeenth century were both powerful and dramatic, forcing
Parliament to adapt from a medieval institution into one with
authority over all facets ofsociety. Dynastic change, union with
Scotland, fiscal reform, civil war, revolution and Restoration
required Parliament not only to be at work, but also to discover
how to work. These studies focus on change and development in three
areas: firstly, the institution of Parliament itself, exploring its
growing institutional sophistication and the problems connected
with attendance, workload and physical environment; secondly, on
Parliament's role within theinstitutional set-up of the
constitution, and the structure and relationships of power within
the governance of the country; and thirdly, on the public
perception of Parliament, and the practicalities of the
relationship between Parliament and the wider world. Contributors:

This book addresses a conundrum. Alone of the major competing
political interests during the civil wars of the 1640s, royalism
needed to transcend attachment to one nation or one religious
tradition and recruit a support base in each of England, Ireland
and Scotland. This book aims to provide a concise interpretation
and reassessment of royalism during these crucial years and focuses
on this dilemma, and on the resources, intellectual and practical,
deployed to address it, with mixed success. It focuses on the key
ideas and values which made royalism a formidable political
alternative, rather than on the more usual factional, military or
literary perspectives. It argues that a âthree-kingdomâ
perspective not only gives a broader view but also clarifies the
distinctive characteristics of English royalism, more robust than
its counterparts in the other nations.

This collection of essays on the alternative establishments
which both Presbyterians and Catholics attempted to create in
Britain and Ireland offers a dynamic new perspective on the
evolution of post-reformation religious communities. Deriving from
the Insular Christianity project in Dublin, the book combines
essays by some of the leading scholars in the field with work by
brilliant and upcoming researchers.
The contributions, all of which were commissioned, range from
synoptic essays which fill in gaps in the existing historiography
to tightly coherent research essays that break new ground with
regard to a series of central institutional and intellectual issues
and problems.
This is a book which will appeal to all those interested in the
religious history of early modern Britain and Ireland.

Pippa and Leith, a sister and brother who've been packed off to
camp for the summer, haven't even arrived at Camp Damble when
things start to go off the rails. After the unstable bus driver
finally gets them inside the grounds, they find the counsellors are
ruthless and robotic, alternately sappy and sinister. A wild-eyed
escapee warns of terrible danger. And what is it that links a black
bungalow in the forest to the legend of Headless Henry? Returning
from an uncharacteristically enjoyable day out, they find a fence
thrown up around the camp - a fence pulsing with electricity.
Realising that Pippa is next in line "for the treatment", whatever
that is, Leith must make his way inside the Black Bungalow, risking
his life as he struggles to solve a terrifying puzzle and vanquish
a madman. Only if he succeeds will they be free to escape.
