This book traces the early 19th century struggle of five Fraser brothers to save their father's impoverished estate in the Scottish Highlands. James and Edward go to work on a slave plantation in Guyana, but when this fails they sail to India to join William and Aleck. The younger George sets out later on a military posting to India. Their story takes place during turbulent times: the Napoleonic wars, the anti-slavery movement, the demise of the Mughal Empire, the Anglo-Nepal War, the rise of Gurkha regiments, the first Afghan War and the changing life in the post-Culloden Highlands. Against this extraordinary background, For the Love of a Highland Home meticulously documents the lives and dramatic exploits of the five brothers, drawing extensively on their copious letters and diaries. Only one of the five survives to return home to his ageing and impecunious parents.
