How does Outlander shape understanding of clan identity and Jacobite allegiance?

How does the series balance modern feminist perspectives with historical realities?

How does Diana Gabaldon answer ten key questions about her work?

In this landmark book, Diana Gabaldon shares her strong views on cultural appropriation and answers ten key Outlander questions. Outlander and Scotland offers a fascinating and sometimes surprising range of insights. Informed voices from the worldwide Outlander community discuss the storytelling, the characters, the real histories behind the fiction and the questions of gender and power Diana Gabaldon raises.
