Memoirs of Prince Charles Stuart V1
Charles Louis Klose
- The Count of Albany. Commonly called the Young Pretender with notices of the rebellion in 1745. Charles Edward Stuart, known as the Young Pretender and Bonnie Prince Charles was born and educated in Rome where he became the center of Jacobite hopes to restore a catholic king on the throne of England. He arrived in England in July 1745 and soon raised an army of followers to claim back the throne he felt was rightfully his. In 1746 his army suffered a crushing defeat by the Duke of Cumberland’s troops at Culloden Moor and he was hunted in the highlands for over five months with a high price on his head. Stuart managed to escape abroad, where he lived out the rest of his life paying only a few secret visits to England. Due to the age and scarcity of the original we reproduced, some pages may be spotty or faded.
