Truth

my mother was a Stuart, grew up hearing of the history and enjoy it, the family came to the Carolina Highlands and then spread on west from there

Stuart gang

For 9 months Highlanders had marched from Glenfinnan to Derby and back having fought two battles. Then frozen and starving, they crossed the mountains in Winter, only to face a Government force twice their numbers....British troops well fed and supplied....

I heard this at the end of the episode of “The Story of English” called “The Guid Scots Tongue” and never forgot it. So glad to hear again!

[@airwicky5441]

Charlie chose to fight and as the song says he murdered the highlands

Charles Edward did NOT chose 'the place hisself' - that's simply Whig propaganda.

These words are not correct - the evidence is overwhelming that the choice of battle site was by the entire High Command, it was Hanoverian propaganda that the Prince insisted on a bad ground - didn't happen that way! - nor did the Jacobites carry 'sticks' against guns. Also it was not 'England's' side. Please go back to the original words of this fine song!

Too True, the Real History is Different, But The Legend of the Poorly Armed, Cold Starving Highlanders is Much More Popular Than the Truth!!!🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
