Historical
The Jacobite Grandson, sequel to Son of a Jacobite, traces the later life of Thomas Lovat and the childhood-into-adulthood of his son, Edward.
Here's what readers have to say about this book....
I am eagerly devouring Jacobite Sons in New South Wales. I'm reading well into the night and snatching time in the day as well. T. J. Lovat's writing flows beautifully. The details of religions of the time is expressed particularly clearly. I know I'll want to read the trilogy again!
These books draw you in from the start, so easy to read. Following the history of the Lovat clan was very interesting. I am hoping TJ Lovat has some further books for us to read. Would encourage everyone to purchase these you will not be disappointed.
Jacobite Sons in New South Wales' is a powerful concluding volume to the trilogy. An excellent historical adventure, with much wisdom and many thought-provoking insights mixed in. Hope there will be more!
Series book. What a great read. I could not put it down and so I read it over the day. It is very much in the spirit of the first book (Son of a Jacobite) and equally riveting. The characters are very clear and flawed at times but that is what makes them real. Thanks to T.J.Lovat for telling such a great story. He has done a marvellous job and I can see the next story is being pointed to at the end of the book with the two boys coming to Australia. There were some wonderful aspects of acceptance and humanity within the telling that were moving and deep. The grandson follows in similar footsteps.
