Waverley is considered one of the first ever 'historical novels'. It's the epic account of a young English soldier's journey to Scotland at the time of the Jacobite Uprising in 1745. His many fascinating adventures include befriending wild Highlanders, falling in love, being arrested for treason, and rescuing comrades from a battlefield.
