Lord Simon Lovat was the last of the great Scottish chiefs ? & the last nobleman to be executed for treason. He is one of Scotlands most notorious & romantic figures, a shrewd & calculating soldier of unlimited ambition, wit & double-dealing who died a martyr for his country & for an independent Scotl&. Born into the unpredictable world of the late seventeenth-century as a younger son of a junior branch of the Frasers, Simon determined to enforce his claim to be chief of the Fraser clan & enjoy the income from its lands. In a life packed with plotting & incident, spells as a wanted outlaw, a prisoner in the Bastille, as loyal British soldier & aspirant Duke, Simon became the greatest double-agent of the age. Determined in 1701 to seek his fortune with exiled Jacobite king in France, Fraser acted as a spy for both the Stuarts & the Hanoverian Georges; claimed to be both Protestant & Roman Catholic. He was feudal, a Highland warrior chief, & benevolent despot. He disputed theological niceties with the Papal Nuncio in France, while courting Louis XIV for money to fund an invasion of Engl&. He was fluent in five languages. In July 1745, Bonnie Prince Charlie landed on Eriskay ? a tiny Hebridean island & launched his last & greatest attempt to seize back his throne, joined after victory at Preston Pans by Simon Fraser & his clans. They reached Derby before retreating ignominiously & facing final defeat at the hands of the British at Culloden. Fraser ? one of Scotland's most colourful characters ? was found hiding in a tree. This gripping adventure & swash-buckling spy story uses the events of Lovats life to recreate this extraordinary period of history. As Sarah Fraser argues, the defeat at Culloden led directly to the end of traditional Gaelic civilization; to the brutal clearances & ?pacification? of the Highlands which followed & the lost civilisations of Scotland that were destroyed after 1745 by English repression. ...
