Jacobite Exile

Being the Adventures of a Young Englishman in the Service of Charles the Twelfth of Sweden

About this book

In the late seventeenth century, the United Kingdom was torn asunder by religious and political sectarian conflict. In A Jacobite Exile, a historical novel geared for younger audiences, teenager Charlie Carstairs finds himself in the thick of the unrest. His father sides with the Jacobites, a minority which came to suffer persecution, so the family flees to Sweden, where Charlie volunteers for military service.
