Stuart, Charles Edward (1720–88), the ‘Young Pretender’. Elder son of James Francis Edward
Stuart, the son and heir of the exiled James II and VII, Charles was the Jacobite prince of Wales. Early in 1744 he left Italy for France, having been summoned to accompany a proposed French invasion of England. It was cancelled. In July 1745 Charles sailed for Scotland to raise a rebellion in the Highlands, with the hope of stimulating French aid. Total self‐confidence, plus a limited grasp of reality, and the outstanding generalship of Lord George
Murray, carried him through a conquest of Scotland and march to Derby which made him a hero. His period of hiding after his defeat at
Culloden endeared him to romantics as ‘Bonnie Prince Charlie’. The rest of his life was a protracted anti‐climax, full of failed relationships and alcoholism.
