Vanha tarina Montrosesta by Walter Scott

"Vanha tarina Montrosesta" by Walter Scott is a historical novel published in 1819. Set in 1640s Scotland during the Wars of the Three Kingdoms, the story follows two soldiers in the Earl of Montrose's Royalist army who fall in love with the same woman. When jealousy erupts into violence, one man stabs his rival and vanishes. The novel interweaves this tragic love triangle with the adventures of Dugald Dalgetty, a mercenary soldier whose professional exploits and comic character dominate much of the narrative amid Scotland's religious and political turmoil.
