01.23 - King in the North

What happened in James' first Kingdom while he was down south
living it up in London? Rebellious lords were brought to heel and
the Kirk was forcibly brought closer to the Church of England. We
also hear about the first, failed, beginnings of Nova Scotia, and
the much more successful colony of St Kitts, while the
burgeoning war in Europe becomes a family affair for James. Check
