Hunted and Harried

The treatment of the Scottish Covenanters by the British crown under the Stuart dynasty in the seventeenth century is a subject to which little space has ever been afforded in history books yet that story goes a long way toward illustrating why religious worship needs to remain free of state control. Written in the nineteenth century by R. M. Ballantyne this novel is a sympathetic portrayal of what is termed the killing time in Anglo-Scottish relations. (Amazon)
