Bloomsbury presents The Jacobite Rebellion by Gregory Fremont-Barnes, read by Ric Jerrom.

This is an accessible, fully updated introduction to one of history’s most heavily romanticized and mythologized campaigns.

Dr Gregory Fremont-Barnes presents a detailed overview of the Forty-five Rebellion, dispelling the myths that have grown up around battles like Culloden and the figures of the Highlanders. Led by the charismatic Bonnie Prince Charlie and fought in the main by clansmen loyal to the Stuarts, the revolt initially saw government forces outmanoeuvred and outfought before the Prince’s march on London halted at Derby. But the following spring, pursued back into the Highlands by the Duke of Cumberland, the Prince’s army made its doomed last stand on the moor of Culloden. Fremont-Barnes examines this key turning point in British history, analysing the dynastic struggle of two royal houses, the Rebellion’s manoeuvres and battles and the tragic aftermath for the Highlands.

Updated and revised for the new edition, this is an accessible introduction to the famous campaign which saw the Stuart dynasty’s final attempt to regain the British throne, and the end of the Highland clans’ way of life.©2022 Osprey Publishing (P)2022 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Kritikerstimmen

I can heartily recommend this concise and very readable account to wargamers seeking an introduction to the origins of the Jacobite rebellions in general and ‘The Forty-Five’ in particular. (Chris Jarvis)
