A fascinating portrait of 18th-century Britain as an age of elegance and brutality... I recommend this book strongly
Allan Massie, Scotsman
Brings the last battle on British soil to life with page-turning vivacity
Mail on Sunday
A tremendous tale - one of the most dramatic in our island's history - and O'Keeffe tells it beautifully,
Saul David, The Times
Fascinating, meticulously researched, often brutally detailed ... without being there, those times could not be more vividly brought to life than in this tremendous book
Roger Alton, Daily Mail
Detailed, vivid - and not for the faint-hearted
Financial Times
Intensely readable... [and] vividly written
Neal Ascherson, London Review of Books
A fascinating portrait of eighteenth-century Britain as an age of elegance and brutality... I recommend this book strongly
Allan Massie, Scotsman, *Books of the Year*
A vibrant and vivid tale, of victory, defeat, savage retribution and 'high' art... In our field one is often inclined to think or say, 'Do we really we need yet another book on Culloden?' However, if they are written as well and as excitingly as Paul O'Keeffe's...then the answer is a resounding 'Yes!'
Robert Woosnam-Savage FSA, Curator Emeritus, Royal Armouries, University of Leeds
