Description
'A racily written, well-researched and heart-warming account' Scots Magazine
Too many historians have ignored the role of women in the '45.
This book aims to redress the balance.
Damn' Rebel Bitches takes a totally fresh approach to the history of the Jacobite Rising by telling fascinating stories of the many women caught up in the turbulent events of 1745-46.
Drawn from original documents and letters, Maggie Craig brings their stories to life in this often touching and always engrossing reframed history.
'A modern classic' The Herald
