In Waverley, published in 1814, Scott created a man who grows to know himself – and the world – through his adventures and experiences of romance and adversity.
At its centre is the story of Edward Waverley, an idealistic young man who fights for the Jacobite forces in 1745. Gentle Rose Bradwardine's heart is lost to Edward, but he is soon drawn to Flora Mac-Ivor, whose beauty and spirited dedication to the Stuart cause capture his romantic imagination. Accused of fomenting mutiny in his regiment, Edward's chance to redeem himself finally comes in battle ...
Walter Scott so vividly evoked the romantic landscape of Scotland and the hopes and disappointments of its hero that Waverley's popularity endures to this day.
