Hi, everyone. For the entire month of November, my podcast will revolve around the Jacobite Wars, particularly the events of 1745-1746 - the last Highland Uprising, Bonnie Prince Charlie, and the Battle of Culloden. I have decided to put my entire source list in one enormous post where everyone can find it. This is non-specific per episode; I used these sources across the entirety of Episodes 11-14 in addition to all the supplemental short rounds, so making individual source posts would be a waste of time and energy.
What follows are ALL the sources I used for this series. From some, I consulted the entire book; from some, I only got details and used certain chapters. But I read most of them and read at least part of all of them. (And it was a lot of reading. I wanted to get this right.) I hope you guys enjoy the story, and look forward to all your feedback!
My recommendation, if this is a subject you want to learn about? I would recommend starting with the best all-around academic work, which is Daniel Szechi's The Jacobites: Britain and Europe, 1688-1788. If that's too academic, Arthur Herman's How the Scots Invented the Modern World is a great popular history work that doesn't just focus on the '45 but spans everything from Scotland in the 1680s to the Industrial Revolution and everything in between. Worth the read.
