"If I were as I used to be, amongst the hills, I would not mount guard as long as I lived, nor would I stand on parade nor for the rest of my life would I ever put on a red coat." SUB-TITLE: Highland Regiments in Revolt 1743-1804. CONTENTS: 1. Men Bred in the Rough Bounds 2. Immovable as a Rock 3. The Young Men with Their Tartans 4. Strangers to Dangerous Principles 5. A Few Good Highlanders; Appendixes; Acknowledgements; List of Sources; Glossary of Highland Surnames; Index. SYNOPSIS: Suborned and sold off by their chiefs, insulted by the harsh discipline of the eighteenth-century army, the clansmen of the highland regiments were the victims of the cynicism of their masters, both English and Scots. Their only redress lay in mutiny and, between 1743 and 1804, sixteen regiments took that road, with sore results. John Prebble has used his deep knowledge and understanding of the highlands in uncovering this bleak and tragic by-way of Scottish history, in a book which will stand with his Culloden and Glencoe as an elegiac monument to a vanished way of life. John Prebble was born in Middlesex in 1915, but spent his boyhood in Saskatchewan, Canada. He entered journalism in 1934 and is now a novelist, a film-writer (Zulu amongst others), and the author of highly praised plays and dramatized documentaries for television, including contributions to Henry VIII and Elizabeth R. During the war he served for six years in the ranks with the Royal Artillery, from which experience he wrote his successful war novel, The Edge of Darkness (1948). His other novels include Where the Sea Breaks (1944) and The Buffalo Soldiers (1959), which won an award in the United States for the best historical novel of the American West. He has also written several books on the history of Scotland. These include Culloden (1961), a subject in which he became interested when he was a boy in a predominantly Scottish township in Canada. Culloden was subsequently made into a successful television film. This was followed by its natural successors, The Highland Clearances (1963), Glencoe (1966), The Darien Disaster (1968) and The Lion in the North (1971). (All these books have been published in Penguins. ) John Prebble is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature.
