Abstract
Anna Whitelock's book "The Sun Rising: James I and the Dawn of a Global Britain" explores the reign of James I, focusing on the period of 1603-25 and his efforts to project Jacobean Britain across the globe. Whitelock challenges negative perceptions of James I, portraying him as a strategic monarch with a coherent agenda for religious reunification, global trade, and imperial expansion. The book highlights key figures of the Jacobean era and emphasizes James I's role in shaping a rapidly expanding world. [Extracted from the article]
