I finally got around to posting my book review of this excellent addition to the Helion stable link If you are a fan of the Jacobite wars in Scotland take a look at this superb book that covers how it all got started. |

Barbarians!
Like there is nowhere else in all of Scotland to build a motorway |

Yes, but the reason the A9 goes through there is the same reason the battle was fought in that place: it's an important communication route.

Back to the review. I'm not sure whether the fault is with Anton or the book but both sides of this are essential Scots. To label one side as Scots is wrong. x42 Edit:- My preferred sides would be rebels and Williamites. |

x42brown My bad, I should have stuck with Jacobite/Williamite |

Loyal supporters of a legitimate king/treacherous supporters of a Coup d'Etat. For those whom it might concern. |

The only foot regiment there that is English is Hastings on the right flank, the book is very informative and well done. |
