Scholars have long emphasized the importance of religion, political institutions, party dynamics, and economic conditions, but this study also brings in seventeenth-century climatic and environmental crises and their impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThrough a close examination of seven key commodities—herring, salt, coal, grain, cattle, wool, and linen—the book demonstrates how environmental instability reshaped patterns of production, trade, and economic perception and altered intellectual and material contexts in which parliamentary decisions were made. Such changes prompted a reassessment of Scotland’s economic viability and informed debates about commerce and political alignment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePatrick \"PJ\" Klinger\u003c\/strong\u003e is Assistant Professor of History at the Virginia Military Institute, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13 March 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Nature Switzerland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePalgrave Macmillan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783032417275\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57333127643276,"sku":"9783032417275","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783032417275","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
