Reseña del libro "Anna, the Witch of Mull: A Scottish Saga of Spirit and Survival (en Inglés)"

The 18th and 19th centuries in the Western Highlands were a time of upheaval and hardship for the clans of Scotland. Once protected by the clan chiefs, everything changed following the battle of Culloden in 1746. Bonnie Prince Charles used the Highland Jacobite warriors in an attempt to reclaim the Stuart throne and a united Great Britain. However, after several successful battles, the Jacobites were unable to fend off the larger and well-armed British in a final bloody defeat on the moor of Culloden. Following this defeat of the Jacobites, the British retaliated by inflicting great punishment on the Western Highland clans. These penalties greatly affected their lifestyle and their lives would never be the same.The Macleans and the Campbells, once warring clans, found themselves working together trying to survive the rule of the laird on the somewhat inhospitable environment of the Isle of Mull. In this informative tale there is birth, death, superstitions, religion, marriages, celebrations and struggles to survive.This Scottish tale explores the lives of Anna Maclean and Donald Campbell, my Scottish ancestors. Generally, there is an abundance of stories written about the rich and famous, but an inadequate supply of tales describing the life of the peasant.Anna, the Witch of Mull, might satisfy some of your curiosity about the life of poor farmers. No matter what country of origin during these centuries the poor had similar challenges trying to survive. Much research was done to portray the life of my ancestors as accurately as possible.
