Audio Guide Chapter 9 To the Reader

This is the official podcast of the La Garde Ecossaise Historical Fiction novels which will explore the books in greater depth and the historical events that inspired them. I will tease out fact from fiction for you and in doing so I will introduce you to this fascinating period of history. 
The La Garde Ecossaise series aims to generate interest and curiosity in seventeenth century history. 
Therefore, the novel will not only appeal to readers of historical fiction but also to university and college students studying courses in early modern history.
 A secret war rages between Louis XIV and William of Orange, a conflict which threatens the stability and security of France and a fight that will determine the future of Europe. Only John Hamilton and his men in La Garde Ecossaise can protect the French realm. 
It is time for the secret history of La Garde Ecossaise to be told and the stories of those men who dedicated their lives to protect innocents from certain death.  These are their stories and the chronicle of the lives they saved.
