Exhibition on the Jacobite rebellions at the National Archives

The National Archives (www.nationalarchives.gov.uk) at Kew in England is currently hosting an exhibition on the Jacobite rebellions of 1715 and 1745, within its Keeper's Gallery, with many documents on display to illustrate the story of the two campaigns. The exhibition will run until January 2016.

Dr Katy Mair and Juliette Johnstone have written a blog post describing what is to be found in the exhibition, as well as to introduce a wider Jacobite themed season of talks and school resources, at http://blog.nationalarchives.gov.uk/blog/keepers-gallery-jacobite-rebellions-1715-1745/
