The Royal House of Stewart

by David Peters

This literary offering is about the Scottish family of Stewart No other has had the same influence on the histories of the United Kingdom as they have had, and not all of it was good Up to the early 17th century the separate monarchy's of Scotland and England had been engaged in an almost continual battle for supremacy for hundreds of years, the balance of power swinging first one way then the other. Although the theme of the book is all about the Stewarts, it starts a bit earlier than them with John Balliol and Robert the Bruce. It then traverses the 15 monarchs of the Stewart dynasty which spans some 343 years, starting with King Robert II and ending with Queen Anne which heralded in the House of Hanover. It was not always a time of peace and tranquillity, sometimes it was far from it but it was rarely, if ever, boring and encompasses the three major confrontations in British History, Bannockburn, Flodden and Culloden We can also throw in the Battle of the Boyne for good measure Enjoy
