Context:

Described by Alex Preston as 'a brilliant paper' that argues smugglers wouldn't have reached the heights they did without the support of Jacobites. Preston cites Monod (spelling out M-O-N-O-D) to explain how large Jacobite landowning families supported smuggling gangs financially, provided hiding places, and helped dispose of bodies. While an academic paper rather than a book, it is a significant scholarly work referenced in the discussion.
