From the Preface to the Index volume - "T HE Council Records of Edinburgh, for the period from 1403 to 1589, from which four volumes of extracts are given in the Scottish Burgh Records Society series of publications, are valuable not merely on account of their extent and variety, and because they illustrate burghal life in the capital of Scotland, but also because they relate to crucial periods of the national history, and throw considerable light on many interesting events. They afford vivid glimpses of the growth of the forces which brought about the Reformation; of the new life and energy which the Reformation called forth; and of the process by which the dominance of French interests in Scotland was overthrown and the tendency to union with England was strengthened. They also throw much light on the trade and commerce of the country, and on the social and religious life of the people.
