"King Charles the First, the Author of Icôn Basilikè, Further Proved in a Letter to His Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, in Reply to the Objections of Dr. Lingard, Mr. Todd, Mr. Broughton, the Edinburgh Review, and Mr. Hallam" is a scholarly work dedicated to defending the claim that King Charles I was the true author of Icôn Basilikè. This book, written in the form of a letter to the Archbishop of Canterbury, addresses and refutes the criticisms posed by various notable figures, including historian Dr. John Lingard, scholar Henry John Todd, Rowland Broughton, contributors to the Edinburgh Review, and historian Henry Hallam. Through meticulous argumentation, the author seeks to substantiate King Charles I's authorship, reinforcing the portrayal of the monarch as a martyr for the royalist cause during the English Civil War. This defense not only aims to preserve the integrity of the royalist narrative but also engages in the broader historical debate on the authenticity of significant historical documents, reflecting the complex political and religious tensions of the time.
