""Mary, Queen of Scots Vindicated"" is a two-volume historical book written by John Whitaker in 1788. The book aims to defend Mary, Queen of Scots, against the accusations of murder and adultery that had been leveled against her by her contemporaries and later historians. Whitaker argues that Mary was a victim of political intrigue and that the evidence against her was fabricated or exaggerated. He also portrays Mary as a tragic figure who was misunderstood and mistreated by her enemies.

The second volume focuses on the evidence against Mary and the arguments that have been made in her defense. Overall, ""Mary, Queen of Scots Vindicated"" is a passionate defense of a controversial historical figure and an important contribution to the study of Tudor and Stuart history.In Three Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
