Description
Excerpt from The Scottish Jacobites and Their Songs and Music: With a Succinct Account of Their Battles
The writer has endeavoured within the compass of a brief essay to sum up the characteristic features of the Jacobite move ments, their originating causes, and the effects produced by them, and also by the songs and music of the Stuart adherents both at the time of the Risings and afterwards.
He has also tried (although the tale has often been told) to give a succinct narrative of the Risings from the ?ight of James the Second in 1688 to the Battle of Culloden and the escape of Prince Charles Edward in 1746.
