Synopsis
The "MERLIN" series is designed to provide introductions to key periods of Scottish history. It is suitable for the older child or the adult who wants a basic understanding of a period. A narrative is based around a main character used to illuminate the life and times in which he or she lived. Montrose - the Captain General - remains one of the major figures in Scottish history. From early support of the Covenant to open revolt for Charles I, the story of his life still impacts on Scottish history. This story tells how Montrose led his tiny army, conquering Scotland through military genius and sheer force of personality. By 1645, as a result of a succession of brilliant victories, he had become the last hope of Charles I during the Civil War. The book shows the grim clash of personality between James Graham, the dashing Royalist cavalier and Archibald Campbell, Marquis of Argyll and leader of the Covenanters. It also explores the background and shifting allegiances which made this one of most tumultuous and complex times in Scottish history.
