Description

Sheriffmuir 1715 is the military history of a doomed Jacobite rising in Scotland, which enjoyed far more public support and arguably far more chance of success than Bonnie Prince Charlie's attempt 30 years later. Unlike the '45, the uprising which culminated in the brutal battle of Sheriffmuir was very much a Scottish affair, fought without either French troops or assistance, and unashamedly aimed at reversing the hated Union with England and reasserting Scotland's independence. However, in this lively new study by acclaimed military historian Stuart Reid, a completely fresh look is taken at the campaign, while the battle is reassessed in the light of a thorough knowledge of the ground and the armies which fought there. AUTHOR: Stuart Reid was born in Aberdeen in 1954 into a family with a tradition of service in the Army stretching back through the battle of Mons to Culloden and beyond. He is the author of several books, mainly on Scottish-related military history including 'Like Hungry Wolves' which is widely regarded as the definitive study of the battle of Culloden. 16 pages of plates and maps
