In 1688 parliament ousted their anointed king, the Catholic James II, and invited his son-in-law, the protestant William III, to take the throne in the so called Glorious Revolution. James II’s son and grandson both launched armed rebellions against the Hanoverian kings of England to regain the English throne.
This course examines the reasons why James II was ousted from his throne, and the impact of the Jacobite rebellions of 1715 and 1745 on York and Yorkshire.
