Author: Peter Traquair

Format: Paperback

Number of Pages: 480


Beginning with the true story of William Wallace and his rebellion, this work covers the career of Robert the Bruce, arguably Scotland's most capable military leader. Peter Traquair reveals how Wallace outwitted the English army at Stirling Bridge and how Bruce achieved his victory at Bannockburn. Traquair also paints a picture of the three Edwards: the sinister Edward I, his doomed homosexual son Edward II and the precocious Edward III who seized power in a coup d'etat against his mother and her lover Roger Mortimer.
