Download or read book Highlander in the French Indian War written by Ian MacPherson McCulloch and published by Osprey Publishing. This book was released on 2008-01-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonial American historian Ian Macpherson McCulloch uses rare sources to bring to life the stirring story of the three Scottish Highland regiments that operated in North America during the French-Indian War (1754-1763). Forbidden to carry arms or wear the kilt unless they served the British King, many former Jacobite rebels joined the new Highland regiments raised in North America. Involved in some of the most bloody and desperate battles fought on the North American continent, Highlanders successfully transformed their image from enemies of the crown to Imperial heroes. The author pays particular attention to the part they played at Ticonderoga, Sillery, Bushy Run and on the Plains of Abraham, Quebec.

Book excerpt: This book traces the early 19th century struggle of five Fraser brothers to save their father's impoverished estate in the Scottish Highlands. James and Edward go to work on a slave plantation in Guyana, but when this fails they sail to India to join William and Aleck. The younger George sets out later on a military posting to India. Their story takes place during turbulent times: the Napoleonic wars, the anti-slavery movement, the demise of the Mughal Empire, the Anglo-Nepal War, the rise of Gurkha regiments, the first Afghan War and the changing life in the post-Culloden Highlands. Against this extraordinary background, For the Love of a Highland Home meticulously documents the lives and dramatic exploits of the five brothers, drawing extensively on their copious letters and diaries. Only one of the five survives to return home to his ageing and impecunious parents.
