Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Could the Stuart dynasty have been restored to the throne in 1745? Written by the world's greatest authority on 18th century warfare, this fast-paced and exciting narrative will completely revise popular opinion about "Bonnie Prince" Charlie, the Duke of Cumberland ("the Butcher"), and the other major players in this historical drama. Christopher Duffy's original research, from all available archives, reveals evidence of a wider plot against the Hanoverians and more support for the risings in Scotland, than had been suspected before. Filled with numerous maps and a comprehensive guide to the key sites, it provides an eye-opening perspective.
