I read Rob Roy while on holiday in Bali, about as far as you can get from the Scottish highlands. I've never read any of Scott's historical novels. Rob. Roy's story is told almost as a side story to the main plot by young Francis Osbaldistone who visits his country cousins and falls in love with Di Vernon.
Fascinating for the insight into Scottish history and characters, and very readable (once you decipher the dialect)
