The author provides an authoritative study of these church councils from the Latin and English records based on original sources. In addition to creating an original work of considerable historical interest, he brings discussion of the councils and their significance into the broader context of Scotland's political, legal, ecclesiastical and social situation over a long period.An important contribution to Scottish church history and to its influence on contemporary affairs."
