Cet ouvrage sur la famille Bruce, est le complément de « Brix, berceau des rois d'Écosse », du même auteur, paru en 1980. Brix s'appelait en effet Brus au Moyen Âge. Mais les Bruce ont disparu de Brix dès 1204, quand la Normandie devint française. Une branche de la famille a cependant fleuri en Écosse, où un Bruce épousa une nièce du roi Guillaume le Lion. Et son fils figura, en 1290, après la mort sans postérité du roi Alexandre III, parmi la douzaine de compétiteurs au trône. Dans l'embarras, les Écossais sollicitèrent l'arbitrage du roi d'Angleterre Édouard Ier, qui n'eut d'autre dessein que d'assujettir leur pays. Commençait la longue lutte d'indépendance de l'Écosse, entreprise par William Wallace, finalement arrêté et exécuté, poursuivie par Robert Bruce, petit-fils du compétiteur. Couronné en 1306, Robert Bruce fut traqué pendant longtemps comme un voleur. Il lui fallut une extraordinaire ténacité pour reconquérir son pays, par un mélange de ruse et d'audace, jusqu'à sa victoire de Bannockburn, en 1314, qui chassa les Anglais d'Écosse. Mort en 1329, Robert Bruce eut pour successeur son fils, le roi David II, disparu lui-même en 1371, sans postérité. Mais Robert Bruce avait eu aussi une fille, qui épousa Walter, le Stewart d'Écosse ; leur fils succéda à David, et fut la tige de la célèbre famille Stuart. Si le nom de Bruce a disparu des annales royales, il a subsisté par un oncle du roi Robert Bruce, dont certains descendants se sont illustrés dans l'histoire.

The battle of Bannockburn, fought on the fields south of Stirling at midsummer 1314, is the best known event in the history of Medieval Scotland. It was a unique event. The clash of two armies, each led by a king, followed a clear challenge to a battle to determine the status of Scotland and its survival as a separate realm. As a key point in the Anglo-Scottish wars of the fourteenth century, the battle has been extensively discussed, but Bannockburn was also a pivotal event in the history of the British Isles. This book analyses the road to Bannockburn, the campaign of 1314 and the aftermath of the fight. It demonstrates that in both its context and legacy the battle had a central significance in the shaping of nations and identities in the late Medieval British Isles.

The entry of the Scots into the English Civil War on 19 January 1644 on the side of Parliament radically changed the balance of power in the North of England. The Royalists in the North were forced onto the defensive and besieged in York. In a bold march Prince Rupert outmanoeuvred his enemies and relieved York without a shot being fired. However, when Rupert met the allied army in battle on Marston Moor on 2 July his cavalry was defeated by Cromwell's Ironsides who then turned on the Royalist infantry. The result was a hard-fought but catastrophic defeat; the Royalist army was crushed and their forces driven from the north of England.
