THE '45: BONNIE PRINCE CHARLIE AND THE UNTOLD STORY OF THE JACOBITE RISING |
CASSELL (31 Mar 03) |
|
| |
|
This work addresses a crucial episode in British history: the last time that a British monarch stood a serious chance of being unseated by a dynastic rival at the head of an army. The '45 Rising has been romanticized over the centuries in many books and films, and still arouses strong emotions in Scotland. Based on original research in all available archives, including Swedish, French and German records, this work makes nonsense of the many popular histories based on self-serving accounts written by a few of the key participants. But it is no dry academic analysis. Christopher Duffy writes a vivid narrative that overturns many accepted "facts" about The '45. His text is supported by numerous maps and a comprehensive guide to the key sites that can be visited today. |
