Overview
Dundee was a devoted servant of the Stuart cause, a key figure in the suppression of the Covenanters under Charles II and at the very centre of power and influence in the Scottish Privy Council. But it was his heroic death at the head of his charging troops at Killiecrankie that has ensured his name in legend. Without his charisma the rebellion soon collapsed and the regime of William of Orange, a prince whose life Dundee had ironically once saved, gained the crucial space and time to gain control of Scotland." "This fully revised edition of Andrew Murray Scott's book, based on extensive research of primary sources, is a compelling biography of one of Scotland's great historical figures.Book Details
