The Betrothed

Meer over het boek

The narrative draws from a tragic historical event involving the Dalrymple family, known for producing notable figures in Scottish history. The author, previously hesitant to disclose the source due to sensitivities, now references accounts from respected contemporaries. He shares a tale rooted in personal connections to the family of the bride, highlighting the family's rise to prominence through James Dalrymple, a distinguished lawyer whose contributions to Scottish law are well-regarded, despite the narrow focus of his work.
