Allan I. Macinnes is professor emeritus of history at the University of Strathclyde and honorary professor in Irish and Scottish studies at the University of Aberdeen. His books include A History of Scotland.
This book is arresting from the very first page. A distillation of fifty years of research on Scottish Jacobitism, Conflict and Loyalty is full of insights into the impact of Jacobitism on Scotland and – just as importantly – the wider world, to say nothing of glorious vignettes illustrating Allan I. Macinnes’ argument. The net result is a mortal blow to any vision of Scots Jacobitism and Scots patriotism (yes, the two were inextricably intertwined) that fails to understand its global ramifications. * Daniel Szechi, Emeritus Professor of Early Modern History, University of Manchester *
