"Compelling...A masterly feat...A magnificent, sweeping, authoritative, warm yet wry history."--The Wall Street Journal In this fascinating and intimate portrait of the Stuarts, author Allan Massie takes us deep into one of history's bloodiest and most tumultuous reigns. Exploring the family's lineage from the first Stuart king to the last, The Royal Stuarts is a panoramic history of the family that acted as a major player in the Scottish Wars of Independence, the Union of the Crowns, the English Civil War, the Restoration, and more. Drawing on the accounts of historians past and present, novels, and plays, this is the complete story of the Stuart family, documenting their path from the salt marshes of Brittany to the thrones of Scotland and England and eventually to exile. The Royal Stuarts brings to life figures like Mary, Queens of Scots, Charles I, and Bonnie Prince Charlie, uncovering a family of strong affections and fierce rivalries. Told with panache, this is the gripping true story of backstabbing, betrayal, and ambition gone awry.

Download and read online ebook The Stuarts' Last Secret write by Peter Pininski. This book was released on 2002. The Stuarts' Last Secret available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This work rewrites the final chapter in the history of the last Stuarts. It provides documentary evidence, previously unknown, which uncovers the fate of Prince Charles Edward's three grandchildren - the secret family of his daughter, Charlotte Stuart, Duchess of Albany. Having discovered his private papers, Professor George Sherburn published a biography of Charlotte's son in 1960. But as James Lees-Milne wrote in 1983, nothing is known about the two daughters. Thus in 1996 John MacLeod claimed Charlotte's son was the last of the line by blood. In discovering the lives of the two daughters the author reveals that one had a son whose descendants survive to this day. The book is the untold story of the Stuart bloodline from the Old Pretender and Princess Clementina Sobieska - described by Professor Bruce Lenman as a vast and exciting panorama laid out over a grand sweep of time in a work whose scholarship is deliberately unobtrusive, but very extensive.
