Culloden
John Prebble
The magnificent reconstruction of the Highlanders' tragic moorland battle of 1746.
Here, from contemporary memoirs, letters, newspapers, and regimental order books, John Prebble reconstructs the Common Man's version of the moorland battle and the months of repression and brutality that followed it. Their bellies empty, their leaders at odds, the ground ill-chosen, the Highlanders were made sitting targets for the Royal Artillery at Culloden. This is the story of what ordinary men and women suffered in the Rebellion for a cause that was never theirs.
