Redgauntlet has been described as Scott’s most autobiographical novel. It depicts the fictitious early beginnings of a third Jacobite Rebellion. The protagonist, Darsie Latimer is kidnapped by Redgauntlet—and, like it or not, becomes part of a recruited army. The novel also includes the entirety of one of Scott’s best-known short stories, “Wandering Willie’s Tale.”
