Fight for a Throne
The bid of Bonnie Prince Charlie and his Jacobites for the throne of Britain has never lost its grip on the popular imagination.In July 1745 he and a tiny group of companions arrived in Scotland. Afterwards the Highland Army continued to out-fight the redcoats in every encounter, except its very last. They came unannounced and unsupported, and yet within less than five months Charles was able to lead an army to within marching distance of London and make King George II fear for this throne.
Almost to the very end the Jacobites had the literal and metaphorical 'edge' over their enemies, thanks to the terror-inspiring highland charge, and also, as this book is the first to reveal, to the highly-advanced organization of their forces in 'divisions' - These were not the achievements of a backward-looking cause, and this ground-breaking study is the first to explain exactly why.
