Johnston of Warriston is a historical biography written by William Morison and published in 1901. The book chronicles the life and times of Sir Archibald Johnston, a prominent Scottish lawyer, politician, and judge who lived during the 17th century. Johnston was a key figure in the Scottish Covenanting movement, which sought to preserve the independence and autonomy of the Scottish Presbyterian Church from the influence of the English monarchy. The book examines Johnston's role in this movement, as well as his involvement in other significant events of the period, including the Scottish Civil War, the execution of King Charles I, and the Glorious Revolution. Morison draws on a range of primary sources, including Johnston's own writings and contemporary accounts of the events in which he was involved, to provide a detailed and nuanced portrait of this important historical figure. Overall, Johnston of Warriston is a comprehensive and engaging account of a fascinating period in Scottish history, and an essential read for anyone interested in the political and religious struggles of the 17th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
