Focus of book is English generals, not Culloden
Very disappointed that almost the entire book is about the English generals and troops rather than the actual battle of Culloden. I waned to learn every detail of the battle but instead got a military record of each English officers career. The majority of the book covers their exploits outside of the battle - North America, Europe, etc. Three chapters relate to the title of the. Ok and the rest shoot off in an unexpected direction. Would not recommend it ... certainly if you're a Scotsman like me looking for an in-depth history of the battle that destroyed the highland culture.

A good insight into the personalities of the Day.
If only the Jacobites had not listened to Murray! Who knows how this would have ended up? Good read and excellent historical content.
