"The Great Marquess: Life and Times of Archibald, 8th Earl, and 1st (and only) Marquess of Argyll (1607-1661)" explores the remarkable life of Archibald Campbell, a pivotal figure in Scottish history during the tumultuous 17th century. Authored with great dedication and attention to historical accuracy, this book offers readers a comprehensive account of Archibald Campbell's journey, from his early years and education at the University of St Andrews to his pivotal role in the Wars of the Three Kingdoms and his unwavering commitment to the Presbyterian cause. What makes "The Great Marquess" truly special is the inclusion of a foreword written by his 9th great-granddaughter, Layla Martin (Campbell) offering a unique and personal perspective on the significance of Archibald Campbell's life and its enduring relevance in the modern world. It serves as both a tribute to his memory and an invitation for readers to reflect on the timeless lessons his story imparts about the pursuit of justice, democracy, and the enduring commitment to noble principles. Whether you're a history enthusiast or someone seeking inspiration from the past, "The Great Marquess" promises to be an enlightening and thought-provoking read.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1903 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XI Montrose appointed by Charles I. Lieutenant-General for Scotland--He enters the Country in disguise--Takes command of the Troops from Ireland --Battle of Tippermuir--Occupation of Aberdeen--Argyll resigns his Commission--Montrose invades Argyllshire -- Battle of Inverlochy-- Montrose excommunicated and declared a Traitor. EARLY in 1644 Charles L had conferred upon the Earl of Montrose, to whom he soon after gave the rank and title of a Marquess, a commission as Lieutenant-General to himself for Scotland; and he had arranged with him to carry the war if possible into that country, and to compel the recall of the Covenanting troops now in England.1 His first attempt, to which we have already referred, was a failure, and for a couple of months he gave what help he could to the Royalist cause in the north of England. He then applied to Prince Rupert for aid, but, unfortunately for the success of his request, it was made the day after the disastrous battle of Marston Moor, and he was told that not a man could be spared to assist in the projected expedition. He therefore resolved upon the daring scheme of entering Scotland with but two companions, and of making the attempt to rally together and employ the Royalist forces, of which Huntly had made such poor use on the recent occasion of his rising against the Covenanters. He hoped also to be joined by Irish troops despatched by the Earl of Antrim, which had been some time overdue. Accordingly on 18th August he set out from Carlisle, accompanied only by Sir William Rollo and Colonel Sibbald, of the latter of whom we have heard before in connexion with the seizure of Airlie Castle by Argyll.2 As all the passes and main roads in Scotland were guarded by the Covenanters, it was necessary...

Excerpt from The Great Marquess: Life and Times of Archibald, 8th Earl, and 1st and Only Marquess of Argyll, 1607 1661 The title of The Great Marquess is one which has been applied both to the subject of the following biography and to his rival Montrose. The title in question has not been conferred upon either of them by the general consent of their countrymen, for each has had a large circle of enemies and detractors, and accordingly neither of them can claim any definite property in it. Those, therefore, who may have been accustomed to think of Montrose as The Great and have now this volume in their hands, are asked to read it with an Open mind, and only to come to a final decision as to whether the claim put forward for Argyll's right to the title is valid after they have perused the story of his life. N 0 one can write of either of the two Marquesses without forming and expressing some Opinion of the other, and liking for the one is generally accompanied by dislike of the other. As many lives have been written of Montrose, and as no regular biography of Argyll, beyond articles in biographical dictionaries, has been attempted before our own, we freely admit that in many minds a certain prejudice exists against him, which we hope to be able to dispel. Yet, though we seek to vindicate Argyll's right to the high place which he occupies in the estimation of a very large proportion of his fellow-countrymen, we do not desire to exalt his fame by seeking to depreciate Montrose. In the very abundant literature which deals with the career of the latter we regret to notice what seems to us the fault which we have sought to avoid. Two striking instances of it we may be allowed to refer to more particularly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
