| Summary |
"The Scottish Cavalier: An Historical Romance, Volume 2 (of 3)" by James Grant is a historical romance novel written in the mid-19th century. This installment follows Walter Fenton, a young soldier, as he navigates both the tumultuous events of the time and the complexities of love in 17th century Scotland. Themes of honor, bravery, and romantic entanglements pervade the narrative, revealing the intertwining lives of nobility and soldiers in a period marked by conflict and chivalry. The opening of this volume sets the stage by delving into the historical backdrop of the Scottish Guard and their significance within the aristocratic circles of France and Scotland. Walter Fenton is introduced as a newly appointed standard-bearer in a prestigious regiment, whose admiration for Lady Lilian Napier grows amidst his military obligations. The narrative quickly shifts to explore the budding romance between Walter and Lilian, interspersed with the playful banter of companions and hints of rivalry from Clermistonlee and other suitors. As the veil of misunderstandings and potential conflicts draws near, the stage is set for both romantic and dramatic tensions to unfold throughout the volume.
