description: The final demise of the Jacobite cause amid the slaughter of the Highland clans on a cold and damp Culloden Moor in April 1746 is undoubtedly one of the most famous battles in British military history. It has also been, until recently, one of the least understood from both a military and political perspective. In this modern and highly detailed account, Stuart Reid combines a thorough understanding of eighteenth-century tactics, an intimate knowledge of the battlefield itself and use of a neglected archive of contemporary material from both sides to provide a detailed, accurate and dramatic account of this controversial battle.
