A brilliant young poet, leading a gallant band whose epic adventure
ends in defeat, betrayal and execution. Montrose was a doomed
King's general who dared to win - and lost it all. The Scottish
Royalist armed forces, along with its principal leader, the Marquis
of Montrose, have had a romantic veneer that has long obscured
their true composition and function. In this work, the author
examines the troops and their operational doctrines within the
themes of the early modern Military Revolution, and places the
Scots Royalists within a greater European context of development.
The book is enlivened by specially-commissioned colour uniform
plates based on the latest research, showing how Montrose's troops
really appeared on the battlefield.
