About the Ebook
Alba, am Foghar 1513. An dèidh dha taibhse fhaicinn ann an Glinn Iucha, tha Rìgh Seumas a Ceithir dealasach gu falbh air taistealachd a Bhaile Dhubhthaich mus dèan e ionnsaigh air Sasainn. Na chuideachd, bidh Mgr Eanraig Leich, an lannsair pearsanta aige, agus an t-amadan as fheàrr leis, Tòmas.
Bidh càirdeas a’ sìor fhàs eadar an triùir fhear fhad ’s a tha iad air chuairt a Bhaile Dhubhthaich agus, an uair sin, a’ marcachd a Northumberland fada gu deas. Ach bidh teagamhan agus droch mhanaidhean gam buaireadh mus tig latha mòr a’ chatha air Blàr Flodden.
Scotland, Autumn 1513. After seeing an apparition in Linlithgow, King James the Fourth is determined to go on a pilgrimage to St Duthac’s Church in Tain before he makes an attack on England. In his company are Master Henry Leich, his personal surgeon, and his favourite jester, Thomas.
Friendship deepens between the three men as they travel north to Tain and then ride to Northumberland, far to the south. But doubts and ill omens will test their resolve before the great day of battle comes on Flodden field.

About the Author
Rugadh agus thogadh Graham Cooper ann an ear-thuath na h-Alba. Cheumnaich e à Oilthigh Obar Dethain mar dhotair agus thàinig e gu bhith na dhotair lannsa. Ged a chaidh a’ mhòr chuid den obair aige a dhèanamh ann an Alba, chuir e seachad ùine ann an Èirinn a Tuath, Sasainn agus Nepal.
An dèidh dha a dhreuchd a leigeil dheth, thòisich e Gàidhlig ionnsachadh. Rinn e clasaichean oidhche ann an Obar Dhethain agus e cùrsa no dhà aig Sabhal Mòr Ostaig.
Tha e an-diugh a’ fuireach ann an Siorrachd Obar Dhethain far a bheil e fhathast a’ gabhail pàirt ann an tachartasan Club Gàidhlig.
Graham was born and brought up in the North East of Scotland and graduated from the University of Aberdeen in medicine, embarking on a surgical career. Although most of his work was done in Scotland, he spent time in Northern Ireland, England and Nepal.
After retiring, he began learning Gaelic at local night classes and consequently enrolled in some courses at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig. He lives in rural Aberdeenshire now where he still participates in local Gaelic classes and events.
