Born into an ancient and wealthy family with a proud military history, Blackader himself chose a life of faith and became a staunch advocate for religious freedom.

Despite these hardships, Blackader's faith never wavered, and he emerged from his ordeal as a symbol of the strength of the human spirit. Drawing on primary sources including Blackader's own writings and family records, the author provides a rich and detailed account of his life and times, shedding light on the religious and political struggles that shaped Scotland during this period.
