Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Chevalier De Johnstone, Vol. 1 of 3 The Chevalier de Johnstone, the author of these Memoirs, was successively aide-de-camp to Lord George Murray, created Lieutenant-General of the Forces by Prince Charles Edward, and to the Prince himself, in his abortive attempt to wrest the British Crown from the House of Hanover; and, likewise, a Captain in the army during the stirring period of the Rebellion in Scotland, and thus had the best opportunities of knowing the events which he describes, and discovering the secret springs of action which actuated the minds of those who took part in that disastrous affair. The Chevalier de Johnstone was the only son of a gentleman of that name in Edinburgh, and his sister, Cecilia Johnstone, was married to John, sixth Lord Rollo, a Scottish Peer of high rank and ancient lineage. His other sister, Jean, was married to John Leslie, Esq., of Crookston, near Dalkeith, the father of Mr. John Leslie, Professor of Greek in King´s College, Aberdeen, and the great-grandfather of Hugh Fraser Leslie, Esq., the present respected proprietor of Powis.
