Eric Wilner: upcoming events

Sun Apr 16, 2006 Anniversary of the Battle of Culloden

Sound the pibroch loud and high
From John O'Groats to the Isle of Skye!
Let all the Clans their slogan cry
And rise tae follow Charlie!
The Jacobite Rebellion ended on the 16th of April, 1746, as Bonnie Prince Charlie's Highlanders, armed with claymores, marched across a bog toward a line of English troops armed with muskets. There's a lesson about asymmetrical warfare in here, which some people still don't appear to have learned.

Sorry, you've missed this one, and there are no future instances on the schedule yet.
