Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate relationship between the Church, the government, and monarchs, focusing on the impact each had on establishing the landscape of government and monarchy in England. The author explores the political landscape of England from the time of the Roman Empi…re to the reign of Henry VIII and the Reformation, including the rule of King John, his signing of the Magna Carta, and the resulting power struggles. The author argues that the complex dance between the Church and state throughout history has influenced the evolution of the institutions and legal frameworks of modern society. Drawing from historical sources and insightful analysis, the author presents a nuanced view of the interplay of religion, politics, and power in shaping the course of English history. This book offers a valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in English history, law, and the enduring dynamics between state and religious power.

Whereby Their Majesties, And the Kingdom, Have Been Prejudiced Near One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Pounds this Year; Besides Other Evils… that Have and do Attend it.

Crosfeild proposes an act of tonnage, whereby coastal vessels would be charged a fixed rate per ton to the collector of each port, and all outward bound ships, except colliers, going either to Holland, Flanders, Portugal, Denmark, or Ireland, would pay twelve pence per ton. However, if any of the latter were taken by the enemy before their voyages were complete, this money would be refunded to them. Inward bound ships, either English or foreign, would pay two shillings per ton, unless they were not fully laden, in which case deductions would be made. Crosfeild thought the abolition of the Receivers-General, who were allowed to take a portion of the taxes they collected, would be beneficial to the finances of the country. He concluded that their interests were being protected by a party of corrupt persons at court because no one there would consider his proposals.
