About 15 h 25 min of reading12 chapters

Robert Chambers compiled the Domestic Annals of Scotland from contemporary chronicles, diaries, council records and private papers, setting out year by year the things that ordinary history leaves out. This second volume runs from the accession of Charles I in 1625 through the troubles of the Covenant, the civil wars, the Interregnum and the reign of Charles II to the end of James VII's reign in 1688. Entries record storms and famines, prices, plagues, witch trials, crimes and punishments, marvels, fashions, feuds, church discipline and the life of the burghs. Chambers lets the original documents speak, and the effect is of a vast scrapbook of a nation's daily life. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
