GEORGE WADE 1673-1748

By Denise Chantrey
ISBN 9780722339176
April 2010

Synopsis

In Westminster Abbey a magnificent marble monument honours the memory of Field Marshal George Wade. He is best remembered for his role in disarming and pacifying the clans after the Jacobite Rebellion of 1715, and for the network of roads and bridges he built in the Scottish Highlands. In all he did he was regarded as a gentleman of the highest honour and integrity; and numerous worthy causes benefited from his generosity, particularly in Bath, where he was the Member of Parliament for twenty-six years.
