About this eBook
Set in England and Scotland, this historical novel is inspired by the life of a Jacobite and outlaw who became a hero to his people. Narrated by Frank, a merchant’s son in search of help for his family’s troubled business, this sweeping tale is based on the life and times of Rob Roy MacGregor. Enmeshed in a rivalry with a conniving cousin and filled with yearning for a woman who belongs to another, Frank encounters the charismatic Highlander who will change his life, in this tale set in a world of fox hunts and duels, rebels and spies, and timeless romance and adventure.
About the author
Sir Walter Scott (1771–1832) was a poet, translator, playwright, and historical novelist, born in Edinburgh, Scotland. Although he was critically acclaimed for his poetry, his passion for Scottish oral tradition led him to write novels inspired by the history of his country. The first writer in the English language to achieve true international fame, Scott is best remembered for Ivanhoe.
