Pero cuando el joven Francis descubre que su intrigante y astuto primo Rashleigh intenta hacerse tanto con los negocios de su padre como con el amor de Diana Vernon, la joven a la que pretende, no le queda otro remedio que acudir en busca del legendario Rob Roy y solicitar su ayuda.Rob Roy es el l der del clan MacGregor, y, aunque valiente y sin miedo, es a su vez un proscrito con precio sobre su cabeza. Pese a ello, decide ayudar a Francis para enfrentarse a Rashleigh, aunque le cueste su propia captura.Ambientada en las v speras del alzamiento jacobita de 1715 en Escocia, Rob Roy es probablemente la novela m s c lebre de Sir Walter Scott, donde se a nan los hechos historicos del popular personaje, y la imaginacion del autor que desarrollo el concepto de novela historica, en un retrato incomparable de intriga, rivalidad y romance.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

In “Rob Roy”, a historical novel by Walter Scott, Frank Osbaldistone, travels to the North of England, and later to the Scottish Highlands, to collect a debt. During this time, he meets the legendary Scotsman, Rob Roy MacGregor. Set during the Jacobite Uprising of 1715, the novel realistically depicts the terrible social conditions in Scotland during that time. Hugely popular in its day for its gripping drama and vivid battle scenes, it was published anonymously in 1817. Robert Louis Stevenson called it “the best of Sir Walter’s”, and Walter Scott himself, “the best of novelists.”
