The Solemn League and Covenant of the Three Kingdoms and the Cromwellian Union, 16431663

This book provides the first major analysis of the covenanted interest from an integrated three kingdoms perspective. It examines the reaction of the covenanted interest to the actions and policies of the Commonwealth and Protectorate, drawing particular attention to links, similarities and differences in and between the covenanted interest in all three kingdoms. It also follows the fortunes of the covenanted interest and Presbyterian Church government as it built and changed in response to the Royalists and the Independents during the 1650s.

Kirsteen M. MacKenzie is a Lecturer in History at the University of Aberdeen.

This book has emerged from a PhD thesis submitted at the University of Aberdeen in 2008 and has evolved substantially over subsequent years. It would not have been possible without the support and encouragement of various libraries, academic colleagues, friends and family. I must give special thanks to Professor Allan Macinnes for encouraging me down the PhD route and for his constant patience, encouragement and positive guidance.

I should also like to thank the many members of staff in libraries and archives across the UK and Ireland who have so generously given their help over the past few years. In particular, Martin Smith at the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, who cheerfully addressed any queries and went out of his way to assist me, also the staff at the National Library of Scotland, Edinburgh University Library and the British Library, who persevered with the large copy orders with good grace. Extra special thanks must go to Virginia Russell and the staff at the National Archives of Scotland for their kindness. I must also thank the library staff at the Queen Mother Library and the new Sir Duncan Rice Library at the University of Aberdeen for their kind and very generous assistance over the years. In particular, I would like to thank Noreen Wilson and Helen Skinner of Interlibrary Loans, who dealt with the constant stream of requests with kindness, efficiency and patience. I am also indebted to Mr Lawrence McLean for his guidance on digital mapping.

In addition, I have received much encouragement, support and advice from various academic colleagues during this time. I should like to thank Professor Ann Hughes, Dr David L Smith of Selwyn College, Cambridge, Dr Robert Armstrong, Dr David Menarry, Jo March-Veitzke and Dr Elliot Vernon. I have also benefited greatly from the support and friendship of Dr Patrick Little, Dr Jason Peacey and Dr Derek Patrick, who encouraged my postdoctoral endeavours, especially when the road ahead seemed incredibly difficult. I am also highly indebted to Professor John Morrison, Professor Robert Frost and Professor Karin Friedrich, who have supported my academic development in recent years, and I am extremely grateful for all the opportunities they have given me.

Lastly, but certainly not least, I would like to thank my friends and family for their constant support and patience. To Marjory Brenchley and Barry Denton, a promise is a promise. I am deeply indebted to Isobel Love, who started the fascination with Cromwell but never lived to see what it would become, and to Lillian Barraud, a very special friend who has travelled down this road with me longer than most. The biggest thanks must go to my parents, Roy and Elaine, for their constant encouragement, support and love. Their financial generosity in funding this project has been amazing. My mother deserves an extra special mention; she, more than anyone, has seen this project come together and has accompanied me on many archival trips outside Aberdeen, sometimes driving long distances and then often at a loose end whilst the research was taking place. Her patience, understanding and generosity throughout the whole process have been incredible.
