Culloden

"We are drawn into the ranks, of both sides, alongside doomed Jacobites fighting fellow Scots dressed in the red coast of the Duke of Cumberland's Royal Army. And we meet the Duke himself, a skilled soldier who would gain notoriety due to the reprislas on Highland clans in the battle's aftermath. Royle takes us beyond the battle as the men of the Royal Army, galvanised by its success at Culloden, start to fight campaigns overseas in America and Indiain order to secure British interests. We see the revolutionary use of fighting techniques first implemented at Culloden and the creation of modern professional fighting forces."--Jacket.
