George Villiers, 1st Duke of Buckingham was an English courtier, statesman, and patron of the arts. He was a favourite of King James I of England. Despite a patchy political and military record, Buckingham remained at the height of royal favour for the first three years of the reign of King Charles I, until a disgruntled army-officer assassinated him.
Paints a picture of friendship, exile, betrayal, murder, adultery, infamy, alchemy and scandal in royal and courtly circles. Buckingham was brought up in court with the two kings, James II and Charles II - his own father. The author investigates why Charles remained true to his childhood friend despite Buckingham's ingratitude.
Centering on five Stuart rulers, plus their royal courtiers and tailors, this is the first detailed study of elite men's clothing in 17th-century Scotland.
