The Battle of Culloden And Its Aftermath. Lessons Learned For Today?


This is a 1964 BBC film. It is one of the best I have seen. This is the same time frame that the BBC put out a film called "War Game" which discuss the impact of a small nuclear war on Britain. That film was banned and was not viewed for nearly two decades.

The Battle of Culloden snapped the back of the Highland Clans. There are lessons to be learned here.

    Your article is very well done, a good read.
