MISNEACH, The Story of Flora MacDonald
Misneach is the word for courage in Gaelic and certainly describes Flora MacDonald, the Scottish heroine who played an integral role in the escape of Charles Edward Stuart after the catastrophic loss at the Battle of Culloden. It is a well-researched, fast-paced, and accurate narrative/historical fiction about an incredibly strong, literate, and resilient woman who played roles in Scotland's history and the American Revolution. What would cause a family to switch alliances from an English King they opposed and then become loyalists to another? All the characters in this novel were actual people with the exception of one mixed-race woman who was needed to tie events together. There are a few shocking facts and some little-known history in this exciting novel, both about England and the Colonies.
