Flight of the Heron read-along: Part V chapters 3-4

[regshoe]

But till my last moments my words are the same: there'll never be peace until Jamie comes hame...

The penultimate week of the read-along, and in these chapters we are still very Jacobite.

Next week we will, sadly, read Part V Chapter 5 and the Epilogue.

it really sounds as though the historical Lochiel, while by no means absolutely a villain, was not the paragon of honour Ewen sees him as

Another fun Lochiel fact: like many other rich people at the time, he had investments in plantations in the West Indies, so he was effectively a slave owner!
