Book excerpt: "The Black Dwarf is set in the immediate aftermath of the Union between England and Scotland in 1707. The political action is centred on the first uprising to be attempted by Jacobites after the Union, the aborted landing of the exiled James Francis Edward Stuart and a large French fleet in March 1708. The dwarf of the title is Sir Edward Mauley, who, in his youth, has embraced the quarrel of his friend and kinsman Richard Vere, killing his rival the Laird of Earnscliff. While imprisoned for manslaughter, he learns that Vere has betrayed him by marrying his intended bride. He retires in misanthropical disgust to Mucklestane Moor, where his extraordinary strength, knowledge of medicine, and ready wealth lead the local people to regard him as a supernatural being in league with the Devil. Living incognito, he is known as Elshender the Recluse. Vere lives nearby with his daughter Isabella who has fallen in love with Earnscliff's son, Patrick. Vere opposes the union, and, in order to further his Jacobite schemes, forces Isabella to consent to marriage with Sir Frederick Langley. Isabella appeals to Mauley for assistance. As Vere's expenditures have brought his lands under Mauley's control, he is able to show Langley that Isabella is penniless without his consent, and the marriage is prevented at the last minute. The Jacobite plot is discovered, and Vere and Langley flee the country. Revealing his true identity, Mauley bestows his fortune upon Isabella who marries Patrick Earnscliff. Mauley disappears and his ultimate fate remains a mystery." -- http://www.walterscott.lib.ed.ac.uk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yet there is in Dugald Dalgetty's professional ethic, his blundering Latin, his loving care of his horse, and his own self-absorption, more genuine humanity than in the political and religious principles of Royalists and Covenanters alike. And the picture which emerges is not of violence imported into Scotland from Germany but of a country destroyed by uncompromising religious hatred, political bigotry, tribal feud and personal enmity.
