Very late comment, sigh. I was delighted with Miss Broster Comes to the Highlands! Aww. Although the tone is, uh, slightly patronizing when marvelling that she is not a man.
Lochiel himself was her guide to the home of his ancestors and the many treasures therein contained. Does that mean she met the Lochiel of her day??
I don't know how reliable this kind of technology is, but pretty interesting: Death masks recreate face of Bonnie Prince Charlie. I like how he looks! And it is reasonably like his portraits, which would seem to be a sign of reliability. Huh. That combination of blond hair and brown eyes is striking! I do know how they knew that he had spots on his face from a death mask made late in life, though? It makes him look like a teenager rather than 25.
