The Jacobite story is more than the tale of Bonnie Prince Charliehis unlucky father and grandfatherand a handful of battles - the BoyneSheriffmuirPrestonPrestonpansFalkirk and Culloden.It is also one of history's longest-running spy sagasthe story of the dark underbelly of the Jacobite yearsof spies and counter-spiestreachery and manipulation. The Jacobite Movement began with the Glorious Revolution of 1688 when James II of England and VII of Scotland fled and his daughterMaryand her husbandWilliam of Orangetook over the thrones.It ended in 1788 with the death of Prince Charlie who ruled as 'King over the Water'.Although destroyed several times - in the defeats of the risings of 17151719 and 1745and with the wrecking of several invasion attempts by France and Spain - in an intelligence war that drew in people from Sussex smugglers to Highland clansmenthe Jacobites proved remarkably able to haunt the Hanoverian government.Across Europe 'moles' dug for secrets at every courtand kings ambassadorssoldierscardinals and royal mistresses all took partfrom the great Duke of Marlborough to Madame de Pompadour and the devious King Louis XV.Even young Glengarryheir to a highland chieftainshipsold himself to Prince Charlie's enemies.Sir Robert Walpole proved a compulsive master mole-catcherBaron Philip von Stosch combined art with spyingand the Irish adventurerpimp and cardsharper Dudley Bradstreetclaimed with justification to have wrecked Prince Charlie's 1745 rising.As for the princein his character lurked all the makings of a great spy and the defects of a bad one.He was a master of disguise and intriguewhich fooled his enemiesyet his arrogance and impetuosity contributed greatly to the Jacobites' eventual defeat in the espionage war.In the final analysis all the battles won and lost during the Jacobite century do not account for the failure of the Stuarts to be restored to the kingdoms they lost at the Glorious Revolution: ultimate defeat lay in their failure to win the intelligence war. 'Jacobite Spy Wars' the new book by the author of the widely acclaimed 'Flora MacDonald: the Most Loyal Rebel'tells the story of the spy wars on and off the battlefield during the hundred years of the Jacobite's fight for power.Told with vigour and vividly recreating the atmosphere of those timesit will appeal to anyone interested in European history.
