Full Description

Charles Sanford Terry (1864-1936) was a distinguished historian and music scholar who wrote important works on Scottish history and J. S. Bach. In this book, which was first published in 1922, Terry joins together a variety of eighteenth-century sources to construct a narrative of the Jacobite Rising of 1745. First-hand accounts are presented with minimal editorial interference, allowing those involved to speak for themselves. Illustrative figures, a list of authorities and a table of notable persons are also included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the Jacobites and eighteenth-century British history.
