This is the story of ordinary men & women involved in the Rebellion who were described on the gaol registers & regimental rosters of the time as ' Common Men' There is little in this book about Bonnie Prince Charlie & other principals of the last Jacobite Rising of 1745 Culloden recalls them by name & action presenting the battle as it was for them describing their life as fugitives in the glens or as prisoners in the gaols & hulks their transportation to the Virginias or their deaths on the gallows at Kennington Common The book begins in the rain at five o'clock on the morning of Wednesday 16 April 1746 when the Royal Army marched out of Nairn to fight the clans on Culloden Moor It is not a partisan book its feeling is for the ' Common Men' on both sides
- John Grant charging with Clan Chatten & seeing the white gaiters of the British infantry suddenly as the east wind lifted the cannon smoke & Private Andrew Taylor in a red coat waiting for Clan Chatten to reach him likening them to 'a troop of hungry wolves' Culloden reminds us too that many of the men who harried the glens as ruthlessly as the Nazis in Occupied Europe were in fact Scots themselves It recalls the fact that many men in Prince Charles' army had been forced to join him It shows that a British foot-soldier's wish for a sup of brandy on a cold morning before battle is as much a reality as a Prince's pretensions to a throne The detail for the story told in Culloden has come from regimental Order Books & manuals from contemporary newspapers & magazines from the letters & memoirs of soldiers & officers eye-witness accounts of atrocity & persecution & the personal stories of the victims themselves Culloden is the story not of a Prince but of a people

The Battle of Culloden has gone down in history as the last major battle fought on British soil a vicious confrontation between Scottish forces supporting the Stuart claim to the throne & the English Royal Army But this wasn't just a conflict between the Scots & the English the battle was also part of a much larger campaign to protect the British Isles from the growing threat of a French invasion In Trevor Royle's vivid & evocative narrative we are drawn into the ranks on both sides alongside doomed Jacobites fighting fellow Scots dressed in the red coats of the Duke of Cumberland's Royal Army & we meet the Duke himself a skilled warrior who would gain notoriety due to the reprisals on Highland clans in the battle's aftermath Royle also takes us beyond the battle as the men of the Royal Army galvanized by its success at Culloden expand dramatically & start to fight campaigns overseas in America & India in order to secure British interests; we see the revolutionary use of fighting techniques first implemented at Culloden; & the creation of professional fighting forces Culloden changed the course of British history by ending all hope of the Stuarts reclaiming the throne cementing Hanoverian rule & forming the bedrock for the creation of the British Empire Royle's lively & provocative history looks afresh at the period & unveils its true significance not only as the end of a struggle for the throne but the beginning of a new global power ...

Culloden was the last battle on British soil It marked the end of clan culture & was the harbinger of the Highland Clearances It ensured the inevitability of the American Revolution & increased the outpouring of Scots across the globe It is the only battle that British Army regiments are not permitted to include in their battle honours; the only battle that Bonnie Prince Charlie ever lost; & the only battle that the Duke of Cumberland ever won Culloden is a battlefield a graveyard & an iconic site that draws people from all parts of the world & as they come they bring with them their stories & their father's father's stories These stories tell of civil war of love of the unexpected & even of the supernatural They are peopled by the second-sighted by clan chiefs & by others who have kept family secrets for centuries The battlefield is a poignant location resonant with past deeds & emotive memories These Culloden tales are offered as a unique record to the power of the place ...
