About the book

John Prebble's Glencoe examines the infamous massacre of members of the MacDonald clan in the Scottish Highlands in 1692. Government soldiers who had accepted the hospitality of the MacDonalds turned on their hosts and killed members of the clan after receiving secret orders. Prebble reconstructs the political background and human tragedy of an event that became a lasting symbol of betrayal.
