Book Description
The murder of the popular Earle of Moray in 1592 near Edinburgh was the stuff of which legends are made. This inviting volume explores that legend, relates details of the Huntly-Moray (Catholic-Protestant) feud, and traces the ballad of the slain ''Bonny Earl'' through its four centuries of growth and change.''A romp! A fine book that will be welcomed by literature students, folklorists, and those interested in Scottish history.'' -- Roger D. Abrahams, author of Singing the Master: The Emergence of African-American Culture in the Plantation South''A graceful and gripping account by a scholar whose love of scholarship, music, and teaching is obvious throughout.'' -- Marta Weigle, coeditor of The Great Southwest of the Fred Harvey Company and the Santa Fe Railroad

Book Description
James Stewart, Earl of Moray was an illegitimate son of James V. He played a pivotal role in the politics of Scotland between 1555 and his assassination in 1571, first as a supporter of his half-sister, Mary, Queen of Scots, but later as her rival for power. Moray's career is controversial - definitely involved in the murder of Mary's secretary, Rizzio, was he also behind the plot to assassinate Darnley with a hidden plan to overthrow Mary? Or was he merely a dutiful servant of the Scottish state, who took on the role of Regent to try to bring stability to the nation?
