On the Trail of Bonnie Prince Charlie cover

Part of a series of guides on key figures and themes, this book follows the life of Charles Edward Stuart, the young pretender. The author sets out on his motorbike on the trail of Bonnie Prince Charlie from England to Scotland and the Isle of Skye, the locations shown with maps and drawings.

The biker-historian’s unique combination of unabashed romanticism and easy irreverence make him the ideal guide to historical subjects all too easily either swallowed up in maudlin sentiment or ‘demythologized’ by academic studies. The Scotsman

Ross writes with an immediacy, a dynamism, that makes his subjects come alive on the page. Dundee Courier
