I Piped, That She Might Dance: The Lost Journal of Angus MacKay, Piper to Queen Victoria

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

By (author): Iain MacDonald

A remarkable debut novel telling the story of Angus MacKay's (1812-1859) turbulent life. MacKay of Raasay is a legendary figure in the history of Scottish music, with his work still celebrated 160 years after his death. The sensational tale of the man himself, however, has been neglected until now. From humble beginnings on the Isle of Raasay, MacKay reflects on his rise through nineteenth-century society, gaining nationwide renown and becoming the first piper to the Sovereign. Yet, despite his fame and musical accomplishments, something is amiss. Why is MacKay writing his journal from the notorious Bedlam hospital? And why has he been dismissed from Her Majesty's service? MacDonald has written a debut for all fans of historical fiction. See more
