I find it unlikely that James I wrote a book in 1542, as he was not born as of than. Lord of Light 00:32, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
I do not know about 1542 but the book was certainly not written in the 21st century. The book’s title is, "THE TREW LAW OF FREE MONARCHIES" not the “The True Law of Free Monarchies“. It was so obviously written before the invention of the spell checker!
Why is he called James I of England? He was also James VI of Scotland. I do not know what history books you have read recently but all the history books I have read state that James was just the king of Scotland in 1598, if that was the trew year of this wee book's publication.
James VI was king of Scotland decades before he became king of England. James VI was Scottish, he was born in Fife, in Scotland. He had a Scottish accent and would have liked the taste of Irn Bru, probably.
What next, King Canute the first was an Englishman!
