English Jacobitism, 1710–1715; Myth and Reality
A complaint frequently voiced by historians of Jacobitism is that their subject is plagued by a breed of authors with a passion for secret agents, romantic uprisings, and princes in the heather.

The diary was, of course, quite unknown to Dr Sykes, and it seems right that there should be some critical examination of it in…
