'Pittock's Jacobitism is certainly a valuable introduction for all those who want to find out what actually happened in Jacobite history' - Gerd Mischler, History 'In fewer than 140 pages he provides an amazing amount of detail and analysis drawn from the extensive secondary literature on the subject.' - John L. Gordon, Jr, Scotia '[E]xcellent and authoritative...worth reading for the first ten pages alone...a masterly account.' - Richard Dargie, History Teaching Review 'A distinctive approach' - Bruce P. Lenman, Scottish Historical Review '...an outstanding overview of the issues and problems which dominated these years of dynastic uncertainty and manages to explain why the topic continues to exert a powerful fascination; for the Jacobite Age is shrouded in mythologies. This book does an excellent job in explaining how these came to obscure the historical reality.' - Richard L.D. Dargie, History Teaching Review 'Murray Pittock provides an outstanding overview of the issues and problems which dominated these years of dynastic uncertainty, and manages to explain why the topic continues to exert a powerful fascination; for the Jacobite Age is shrouded in mysteries. This book does an excellent job in explaining how these came to obscure the historical reality.' - Richard L.C. Dargie, Scottish Association of Teachers, History Teaching Review
