Star Trek would not have been my guess as to how you got into Jacobite stuff, heh.
See also my love for terrible people as long as they're safely remote, see also how I got into Frederick the Great. :P
Whereas I love stories where people are torn between different loyalties, have to choose between their duty and their love, etc. I think you can see the appeal of writing fic set in the '45 to me. : D
All right, I will write up a bit more about the famous Jacobite women when I can. I am now reading a Ph D thesis on Jacobite women and have discovered a very cool woman I didn't know about! More to come.
Also re: Jenny Cameron, if you believe the anti-Jacobite propaganda, she slept around in a French nunnery and also seduced her brother...
