John Graham, 1st Viscount of Dundee

John Graham, 1st Viscount of Dundee, was a Scottish nobleman and military leader in the late 17th century. He is best known for supporting the Catholic King James VII of Scotland and II of England during the Jacobite uprising, aiming to restore James to the throne after he was deposed. Dundee was a skilled tactician and played a key role in military campaigns, though he was ultimately defeated at the Battle of Cromdale in 1690. His efforts made him a national figure among those loyal to the Jacobite cause, symbolizing resistance to the Protestant monarchy and foreign influence.
