Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Tales of the Wars of Montrose, Vol. 2 of 3
Although young Aston was taught every accomplishment of the age, yet he had no settled situation, either of honour or emolument. He looked forward to the life of a soldier, but hitherto his patron had made no provision for him. He was a principal man at weaponshaws, excelling every competitor. An excellent bargeman, a most acute marksman, and, at the sword exercise, he was not surpassed by any young man in the kingdom.
