The Glen Coe Massacre: Scotland's Darkest Betrayal

In February 1692, under the cover of a snowstorm, government soldiers turned on their hosts in Glen Coe, murdering dozens of MacDonalds in one of the most infamous episodes in Highland history. Lucas and Luna uncover the story behind the massacre: the political scheming of the Campbell clan, the rivalry between the MacDonalds and the crown, and the brutal aftermath that left a wound on Scotland's memory. They explore the Act of Settlement, the role of Secretary Dalrymple, and how the massacre was used as a tool to crush Jacobite resistance. A tale of betrayal, hospitality violated, and the harsh reality of Highland politics. #GlenCoeMassacre #MacDonald #Campbell #Dalriada #Jacobite #WilliamIII #1692 #HighlandClearances #Scotland #HighlandHistory #ClanHistory #Betrayal #Massacre #KingWilliam #SecretaryDalrymple #GlenCoe #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
