biographies, John Graham is one of the great figures of Scottish history. To his supporters he will always be Bonnie Dundee, first and most romantic of the Jacobite rebels. To his enemies he is Bluidy Clavers. Going back to original sources the authors penetrate the myth to reveal the life and career of a supremely efficient and disciplined soldier, faithful to the service of his government yet who ended his days as a rebel commander at the head of a ragged clan army in the hills of northern Scotland.

UK: Weidenfeld & Nicolson Ltd, 1989. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 9.6 x 6.2 x 1 inches. H/B 244 pages condition is very good. John Graham of Claverhouse is one of the great figures of Scottish history. To his supporters he will always be 'Bonnie Dundee', first and most romantic of the Jacobite rebels, leading his Highlanders at the Battle of Killiecrankie in 1689 and dying, tragically, at the moment of triumphant victory. To his enemies, the Presbyterian Covenanters, he is 'Graham of Claverhouse' or 'Bluidy Clavers', accused of appalling atrocities and still spoken of with bitterness in the west of Scotland, where his reputation is etched in folk memory and on crumbling gravestones throughout the shires of Dumfries, Ayr and Galloway. As with many legends, the truth is more complex and more interesting than the legend. Going back to original sources, and with access to family papers and private archives, Magnus Linklater and Christian Hesketh look behind the caricature - romanticized by Walter Scott and vilified by Macaulay - and examine the life and career of a supremely efficient and disciplined soldier, faithful to the service of his government, yet who ended his days as a rebel commander at the head of a ragged clan army in the hills of northern Scotland. This book is also a portrait of life in seventeenth-century Scotland and a study of one of the darker periods in Scotland's story, known ever after as 'the killing time' and crucial to an understanding of the Jacobite rebellion. With eight pages of black & white illustrations.
