Culloden Guidebook
The battle of Culloden, on 16 April 1746, was over within an hour: but its toll was bloody and brutal and its repercussions were felt for generations - not only in the Highlands, where it accelerated traumatic social change, but globally. The myth and reality of the struggle between the Jacobites and the British government are explored in a new guidebook published by the National Trust for Scotland to accompany the exciting new exhibition at Culloden. The authoritative text by Lyndsey Bowditch, with contributions by historian Andrew Mackillop archaeologist Tony Pollard and stunning landscape photography by Mike Bolam, also make this richly illustrated book a fascinating read in its own right.
