Summary

"Rob Roy — Volume 02" by Sir Walter Scott, is a continuation of the adventures of Francis Osbaldistone, caught in a web of Scottish political and economic troubles surrounding his family's business and the mysterious Rob Roy MacGregor. Themes of devotion, affection, and the disruptive effects of political scheming during a period of intense national unrest are examined.
