内容简介
"Old Mortality, Complete" by Walter Scott is a historical novel published in 1816. Set in southwest Scotland during the turbulent Covenanter period of 1679, it follows Henry Morton, a young man caught between his love for a Royalist woman and his involvement in a Presbyterian uprising. Through battles at Drumclog and Bothwell Bridge, Morton navigates conflicting loyalties while religious extremism threatens both sides. Scott weaves together romance, political intrigue, and the passionate—often fanatical—struggle for religious freedom in seventeenth-century Scotland. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
