- Tenure of Kings and Magistates (1650) By John Milton in defense of the execution of Charles I by the British Parliament a few days after its occurrence. It includes an excellent evaluation and summation of the political literature produced on the Continent in the 16th Century. Charles I was the first monarch executed in Europe by his subjects, setting the stage for a religious struggle that would grip Britain for several decades to come. The language and spelling of this edition has been done directly from the 1650 edition.
