Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oliphants of Gask: Records of a Jacobite Family This book was undertaken with the object of producing, in simple and picturesque form, an outline of the history of the Oliphants of Gask and their forbears, from early times to the present day. It was intended to form a short sketch, in the interests of the youngest generation of the race, for whom the family traditions, now separated from the ancient lands, would soon, as years passed, become confused and dim. Much was already in print concerning the old documents, and the part played by the Lairds of Gask in Jacobite enterprise, and some of the new information is so purely genealogical in character, that the reader not interested in such research can only be advised to skip the earlier chapters; but as the work went on, and the contents of the Gask charter chest were further examined, letters concerning many other families came to light, and seemed to suggest a possible extension of interest beyond the actual members of the Gask family. These letters, mainly of domestic rather than historical interest, re ect much that belongs to life in its most ordinary aspect; they are alive with the common cares and trivialities of every-day existence, - voices of a dead Past, speaking the living language that links them with the men and women of to-day, in the appeal of our unalterable humanity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carolina Oliphant, Lady Nairne, a contemporary of Robert Burns, wrote over 80 songs which enjoyed great popularity during her lifetime and still do so up to the present day. They are some of Scotland's most famous traditional songs – including 'Charlie Is My Darling', 'A Hundred Pipers', 'Will Ye No' Come Back Again' and 'The Laird of Cockpen'. Despite their popularity, she shunned publicity and never acknowledged her authorship in her lifetime, even concealing it from her husband for a time. After her death, the publication in 1846 of her collected songs and poems as Lays from Strathearn revealed her secret. Partly because of her lifelong reticence, details of her biography and her personality have remained little-known though her songs are famous, and this important Scottish literary figure has been neglected. Freeland Barber, a descendent of Lady Nairne, now presents a long-overdue biography and reassessment of her life and work, much of it based on research into family papers to which he has recently had access.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Oates examines in minute detail why the Jacobite forces posed such a threat to William and Mary, Queen Anne, and George I and II.” —Books Monthly Many books have been written about the Jacobite rebellions—the armed attempts made by the Stuarts to regain the British throne between 1689 and 1746—and in particular about the risings of 1689, 1715, 1719 and 1745. The key battles have been described in graphic detail. Yet no previous book has given a comprehensive military account of the campaigns in their entirety—and that is the purpose of Jonathan Oates’s new history. For over fifty years the Jacobites posed a serious threat to the governments of William and Mary, Queen Anne and George I and II. But they were unable to follow up their victories at Killiecrankie, Prestonpans and Falkirk, and the overwhelming defeat suffered by Bonnie Prince Charlie’s army when it confronted the Duke of Cumberland’s forces at Culloden in 1746 was decisive. The author uses vivid eyewitness testimony and contemporary sources, as well as the latest archaeological evidence, to trace the course of the conflict, and offers an absorbing insight into the makeup of the opposing sides, their leadership, their troops and the strategy and tactics they employed. His distinctive approach gives the reader a long perspective on a conflict which is often viewed more narrowly in terms of famous episodes and the careers of the leading men. “A novel and rewarding approach in providing a comprehensive account of the Jacobite rebellions. This is a story of a family torn apart by religion and entitlement. Highly Recommended.” —Firetrench
