Although its failure brought savage retribution from the Hannoverians, the Jacobite flame continued to burn decades after Culloden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the first modern history of the entire Jacobite movement in Scotland, England and Ireland, from the 'Glorious Revolution' of 1688 that drove James II into exile and the death of his grandson, Cardinal Henry, Duke of York, in 1807. The Battle of Culloden and Bonnie Prince Charlie's flight through the heather are well known, but not the other risings and plots that involved half of Europe and even revolutionary America. The King Over the Water weaves together all the strands of this gripping saga into a vivid, sweeping narrative, full of insight, analysis and anecdote.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Desmond Seward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64839324696925,"sku":"9781780276762","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1074\/9358\/9341\/files\/9781780276762.jpg?v=1780058065","url":"https:\/\/adventureintobooks.co.uk\/products\/9781780276762","provider":"Adventure Into Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
