Within this book, Andrew Lang identifies the infamous agent as Alastair Ruadh MacDonnell, a Scottish Jacobite who acted as a spy on Prince Charles Edward after 1750. This volume contains a wealth of fascinating information, and will be of considerable utility to those with an interest in the intriguing case of “Pickle” the spy. The chapters of this volume include: “The Last Rally of Jacobitism Hitherto Obscure”, “Nature of the New Materials”, “Information from Spies”, “Unpublished Stuart Papers”, “The Chief Spy”, “His Position and Services”, etcetera. Andrew Lang (1844 - 1912) was a Scottish poet, novelist, and critic. Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.

Excerpt from Pickle the Spy: Or the Incognito of Prince Charles His existence was suspected by Scott, if not Clearly known and understood. In his introduction to Redgauntlet}l Sir Walter Scott says that the ministers Of George III. 'thought it proper to leave Dr. Cameron's new schemes in concealment lest by divulging them they had indicated the channel Of communication which, it is now well known, they possessed to all the plots Of Charles Edward.' TO 'indicate' that secret channel of communication between the Government Of the Pelhams and the Jacobite conspirators Of 1749 17 60 is one purpose Of this book. Tradition has vaguely bequeathed to us the name Of Pickle the Spy, ' the foremost Of many traitors. Who Pickle was, and what he did, a whole romance Of prosperous treachery, is now to be revealed and illustrated from various sources. Pickle was not only able to keep the Duke Of Newcastle and George II. Well informed as to the inmost plots, if not the most hidden movements Of Prince Charles, but he could either paralyse a serious, or promote a premature, rising in the Highlands, as seemed best to his English employers. We shall find Pickle, in company with that devoted Jacobite, Lochs garry, travelling through the Highlands, exciting hopes, consulting the chiefs, unburying a hidden treasure, and encouraging the clans to rush once more On English bayonets.

Pickle the Spy By Andrew Lang nternal feuds of the Jacobites at this period, and these are illuminated by the Stuart Papers, the letters of James and his ministers. The plan of our narrative, therefore, will be arranged in the following manner. First, we sketch the character of Prince Charles in boyhood, during his Scottish expedition, and as it developed in cruelly thwarting circumstances between 1746 and 1749. In illustrating his character the hostile parties within the Jacobite camp must be described and defined. From February 1749 to September 1750 (when he visited London), we must try to pierce the darkness that has been more than Egyptian. We can, at least, display the total ignorance of Courts and diplomatists as to Charles's movements before Pickle came to their assistance, and we discover a secret which they ought to have known. After the date 1752 we give, as far as possible, the personal history of Pickle before he sold himself, and we unveil his motives for his villany. Then we display Pickle in action, we select fr We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

This is the peculiar title of a book that is making something of a literary sensation. This brilliant study of the betrayal and extinction of Jacobitism has triumphantly solved a mystery which once baffled all Europe. History has so far sought in vain to follow the wanderings and intrigues of Prince Charles Edward, the Young Pretender, after his expulsion from France in the last days of 1748. "From this time forward," says Lord Stanhope, writing of the time when the Prince quitted Avignon early in 1749, "his proceedings during many years are wrapped in mystery; all his correspondence passed through the hands of Mr. Walters"--according to Mr. Lang the name should be Waters-"his banker at Paris, even his warmest partisans were seldom made acquainted with his place of abode, and though he still continued to write to his father at intervals, his letters were never dated. Neither friends nor enemies at that time could obtain any certain information of his movements or designs. Now, however, it is known that he visited Venice and Germany, that he resided secretly for some time at Paris, that he undertook a mysterious journey to England in 1750, and perhaps another in 1752 or 1753; but his principal residence was in the territory of his friend the Dukede Bouillon, where, surrounded by the wide and lonely forest of Ardennes, his active spirit sought in the dangerous chase of boars and wolves an image of the warlike enterprise which was denied him. It was not till the death of his father in 1766 that he returned to Rome and became reconciled to his brother. But his character had darkened with his fortunes."
