This book examines the Scottish contribution to the British state during the 1790s, with a view to establish how the government of Scotland met and handled the specific challenges it faced over the course of the decade, and the extent to which the Scots rallied to the defence of Britain at this time of crisis. Key Features: Archival study of Scotland's role in the French revolution * Examines the Scottish government's level of involvement * Covers political trials and military recruitment * Looks at loyalist demonstrations and ideology * Analyses financial backing of wars. |
