'Neil Guthrie presents an impressive range of subject matter and a wealth of learning in this original, erudite, and perceptive book. He is not only well-versed in eighteenth-century history and literature, but also knows the relevant fields of law - necessary for an understanding of the limited room for manoeuvre available to Jacobites - and Latinity, the medium for so many tags, allusions and inscriptions in Jacobite literature.' Colin Kidd, University of Glasgow
