A swashbuckling historical adventure set during the Jacobite rebellion of 1745. When young Oliver Wheatman hooks a thirty-pound pike and meets the beautiful Margaret Waynflete on a riverbank, he is swept into a world of danger, romance, and high-stakes intrigue that will test his courage to the limit.
Description
The Yeoman Adventurer follows Oliver Wheatman, a young yeoman of Staffordshire, whose quiet life is upended when he rescues Mistress Margaret Waynflete from capture by dragoons. Her father, a seasoned mercenary, has been arrested as a Jacobite spy, and Oliver finds himself drawn into the heart of the rebellion of 1745.
From fleeing across the English countryside to standing before Bonnie Prince Charlie himself, Oliver’s journey is one of thrilling escapes, daring rescues, and hard-won honor. George W. Gough’s novel is a masterful blend of historical detail and ripping adventure, written in the tradition of Robert Louis Stevenson and Sir Walter Scott.

good book but some parts are confusing. the pacing is uneven and I wish there was more backstory for some characters. still an entertaining read if you like old fashioned adventure stories
