Labeled the butcher by Jacobites, William, Duke of Cumberland is remembered mainly for his command of the British army which defeated Charles Stuart, the young pretender at Culloden. This book show's he was more than a butcher. He was a devoted son, and friend to his father, George II. He was the first Hanover Prince born in England. He was a brilliant General and dedicated to his troops. William even came to the aid of his nephew George III and helped set up a new government when most men would have just stayed in retirement. I enjoyed the tale of Mr. Whitworth's, and I now believe that history should re-judge this man by his life and deed's.
