Bonnie Prince Charlie, the Young Pretender. The story of the biggest manhunt ever mounted that turns into the greatest escape story in British history.

The Complete Collected Poetry works of Robbie Moffat 1974-2017. Six hundred and ninety pages of poetry, more than one thousand individual poems, twenty pages of notes. The poet is a famous film-maker who has directed twenty five feature films. His poetry contains a beauty and a flair for storytelling that puts the man behind the camera in the spotlight. There are no actors to hide behind or to mask his real state of mind. In his poetry he is himself, a man struggling to understand life, to cope with romance, and rejection - a man trying to make sense of everything that life throws at him. But make no mistake, he is no ordinary man, he has an exceptional insight into others. He has traveled the world and put what he has seen and experienced into a collection of poetry that is unique. There is no doubt that he is Scotland's greatest poet of the late 20th and early 21st century.
