"Ringan Gilhaize" is an autobiography, a folk history of immense scope, and a psychological portrait of how idealism can turn to fanaticism. This is the story of the religious and political disputes that resulted in the battle of Killiecrankie in 1689. John Galt shows the power of his writing and looks across three generations to depict Scotland's most tumultuous period.
