Rob Roy — Complete
On the eve of the 1715 Jacobite rebellion, Scotland trembles at the crossroads of history. Young Francis Osbaldistone arrives in Edinburgh to salvage his family's ruined business, only to discover his scheming cousin Rashleigh has seized everything: the company, the fortune, and the woman Francis loves. Desperate, he turns to the only man fearless enough to challenge such corruption: Rob Roy MacGregor, chieftain of the decimated MacGregor clan, now an outlaw hunted by English law but still burning with Highland honor. What unfolds is a tale of intrigue, betrayal, and doomed romance played out against a Scotland tearing itself apart. Scott captures a land where ancient clan loyalties collide with imperial authority, where men are outlawed for bearing their own names, and where one bold rebel becomes a legend. This is historical fiction at its most visceral - a novel that invented the genre and still crackles with life two centuries later.
