"James V suffered the fate of many a son of a famous father in being somewhat overshadowed
not only by his father James IV but also by his internationally renowned daughter
Mary Queen of Scots. But no-one would deny the importance of his reign, embracing
as it did the establishment of the Court of Session, the birthpangs of religious dissent,
and the growth of royal power to such a remarkable extent that this king could leave
his kingdom for nine months in 1536-7 without fear of rebellion. Jamie Cameron concentrates
on James V's style of government and relations with his nobility, and challenges the
widely held view of a vindictive and irrational king, motivated largely by greed,
who antagonised most of his leading magnates and met his just deserts when they refused
to support him in 1542. This book offers a different view, and presents us with a
rounded picture of a king whose approach to government, in spite of some personal
defects, closely resembles that of his supposedly more popular father; and, like James
IV himself, retained impressive magnate support to the end of his reign."--Page 4
