Publisher's Synopsis
History Vindicated In The Case Of The Wigtown Martyrs is a book written by Archibald Stewart in 1869. The book is about the Wigtown Martyrs, two Scottish Covenanters who were executed in 1685 for their refusal to renounce their Presbyterian faith. The author argues that the execution of Margaret Wilson and Margaret McLachlan was a gross injustice and that their story has been misrepresented in history. He provides a detailed account of their trial and execution, as well as the political and religious climate of Scotland at the time. The book is written in a scholarly and historical style, with references to primary sources and other historical works. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Scottish history, religious persecution, or the struggle for religious freedom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
