Sinopse

The wild beauty of the Trossachs serves as the setting for this tale of a young Englishman's encounter with a legendary Scottish outlaw. Frank Osbaldistone's journey to reclaim his father's stolen fortune leads him into the heart of the Jacobite rebellion and the orbit of the enigmatic Rob Roy MacGregor. The novel contrasts the commercial prudence of the south with the fierce, archaic code of the clans. It is a vivid historical adventure that explores the collision of economic progress with the romantic past.
