Scott's Waverley (1814), set in and around the Jacobite Rising in the Scotland of 1745–6, was the first historical novel in world literature. In this study, Richard Humphrey traces and accounts for the text's broad impact on and shows its originality in tackling the manifold issues of rebellion and warfare, separatism and union, prejudice and cultural tolerance.
