Book 2 of the Jacobite Wars for ScotlandScotland had won its freedom at Prestonpans but all was not well. Bonnie Prince Charlie had dreams of sitting on the throne in London, among many of his expectations that his officers sought to subdue. After all the Scot's army was yet insignificant in comparison to the English army and the English King was already looking towards the Dutch to bolster his numbers. If the French had kept their promise and risen as expected, it may have been a different story. While Charlie danced away the night at Holyrood Palace, his officers worried about his plans for the future. Jamie Shepherd and his cousin William Shepherd had experienced the horrors of war at Prestonpans and both now wondered what was right and what was wrong in this conflict. Neither knew where their Uncle James Legg was and whether he would return. As they stood at Duddingston Loch they were faced with a future that looked bleak and both thought of home and family.Were they prepared for what was to happen next? The plain answer is that no one was. Their paths would not be of their choosing, but this was war and few knew or wished for what lay ahead. With the English army massing at Newcastle and rumours of further battalions arriving from Europe, what was the sensible action? Wait in Edinburgh and grow in strength or challenge the enemy on its own land. Only a maniac would do that?Well, Bonnie Prince Charlie had his own thoughts and this would be the beginning of a long journey. Follow in the footsteps of the young boys as they travel the length of England and Scotland in their quest for a free Scotland. Who will be 'Triumphant to the Last'?
