Culloden 1746: The Highland Clans' Last Charge, Vol. 12

Culloden marked the end of the last and greatest of the Jacobite adventures - the '45 Rebellion - in which the Highland clans challenged the power of the Hanoverian King of England. It was at Culloden that Charles Edward Stuart's army was finally defeated. His tired Highlanders had little chance against the steady infantry and heavy artillery fire of the English. Peter Harrington examines all aspects of the battle, including its background, the earlier Highlander victories, the men and commanders of both sides, and the massacre that took place in its aftermath.Harrington, Peter is the author of 'Culloden 1746: The Highland Clans' Last Charge, Vol. 12', published 1998 under ISBN 9781855321588 and ISBN 1855321580.
