About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of White Cockades: An Incident of the "Forty-Five" by Edward Irenaeus Prime-Stevenson. Read in English by Thomas A. Copeland. Shortly after the slaughter at Cullodden moor, Andrew Boyd, son of a wealthy landowner, frees a fugitive Scot of higher degree from a mishap, and he and his father hide him from his English pursuers in their venerable old Scottish home called Windlestrae. Because the of the Boyds’ English roots, their neighbors suppose them to be loyal to King George, a mistake that makes their home relatively safe for their guest, but a troop of English soldiers, with a highland captive, stray to Windlestrae in the fog at night and make themselves at home there. The stage has been set for a tense domestic drama, which gradually develops into an adventure calling for quick wits, cool daring, and iron resolve. (Summary by Thomas Copeland)
