Majestie : the king behind the King James Bible / David Teems.

Teems, David. (Author).

Summary:

Orphaned, bullied, lonely, and unloved as a boy, in time the young King of Scots overcame his troubled beginnings to ascend the English throne at the height of England's Golden Age. In an effort to pacify rising tension in the Anglican Church, and to reflect the majesty of his new reign, he spearheaded the most important literary undertaking in Western history - the translation of the Bible into a beautiful, lyrical, and accessible English. - From back cover
