Johnston, ArranTHE BATTLES OF BONNIE PRINCE CHARLIE: The Young Chevalier at War Prince Charles Edward Stuart (1720-1788) was the grandson of Britain's last Stuart king and the last of his line to fight for their right to the throne. Born in Rome and raised at his father's cultured and cosmopolitan court-in-exile, the young prince grew up beneath a heavy weight of expectation and yearned for the chance to prove his worth. In 1745, just as it seemed his best opportunity had already passed, Charles threw caution to the wind and embarked on a secret and seemingly desperate expedition to Scotland. What followed is one of the most remarkable, famous, and often misrepresented episodes of Scottish history: the '45. Covers the battles of Prestonpans, Falkirk, and Culloden to reveal the prince's strengths and flaws as a commander, and the difficult relationships he had with the very people on whom his fortunes, and reputation, would depend. Contains 25 mono illustrations. 1 vol, 232 pgs 2024 UK, PEN & SWORD NEW-dj, available late January 2024 ......$50.00 discount: :15% rct ..see our 18TH CENTURY
