This was a short story that I had to write for my English Class. Have a look if you want :)

This is an excerpt from one of 40 short stories in the OMP (One Million Project) Fiction Anthology. Historical fiction based around the Battle of Culloden -the last battle to be fought on Scottish soil.

This short essay (or whatever you want to call it) tries to cover and explain the full background story of the book series/Netflix show "Outlander" from a historical point of view. It only gives a short, detailed enough overview of the historic events which led to the Battle of Culloden and the battle itself. As I am not a native speaker, there might be some spelling and grammar mistakes.

Tony Harmsworth has been involved in presenting Scottish History to the public for nearly forty years. Exhibitions he has staged include the Great Glen Exhibition, Macbeth Experience, Loch Ness Exhibition Centre, Fort Augustus Abbey Heritage Centre, Loch Ness Diorama and others. The Fort Augustus exhibition was the largest private exhibition ever to have been staged in Scotland. In addition he has run tour businesses specialising in presenting the most interesting aspects to the history of Scotland. While doing this his tours became the first four star tour in the Highlands, the first five star tour in Scotland and the tours he was operating at his retirement had become number one on Trip Advisor for the whole of Scotland. It was suggested he take some of the stories he uses during his tours and put them into a book. THIS is that book. All the bloodiest Scottish history from the stone age through to the first Scottish Independence Referendum. This book takes you through the entire history of Scotland in chronological order so that you don't just learn about, say, Mary Queen of Scots, but also how she came to become a divisive figure and what lead up to the Jacobite uprisings of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
