Jenny Geddes caused a riot in St. Giles Cathedral on Sunday morning, July 23, 1637 when she threw a stool at the Dean of Edinburgh as he read from the new Anglican-style "Booke of Common Prayer." The problem was not the liturgy, but the politics! Payne and Rader trace the trajectory Geddes' stool took, following it from the reformation in Scotland to the revolution in the colonies, the beginning of American democracy, and the notion of the separation of church and state.
