James VI and the Gowrie Mystery is a historical book written by Andrew Lang that explores the mysterious events that took place in 1600 at Gowrie House in Perth, Scotland. The book begins by providing a brief overview of James VI's life and reign as the King of Scotland and England. It then delves into the details of the Gowrie incident, where James was allegedly attacked by the Gowrie brothers, John and Alexander, in their own home. The book examines the evidence and theories surrounding the event, including the possibility of a conspiracy against the king. Lang also discusses the political and social context of the time, including the tensions between the Scottish and English courts. The book concludes with an analysis of the impact of the Gowrie mystery on James VI's reign and legacy. Overall, James VI and the Gowrie Mystery is a fascinating historical account that sheds light on a little-known event in Scottish history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
