Robert the Bruce (1274-1329) was the famous unifier of Scotland and defeater of the English at Bannockburn - the legendary hero responsible for Scottish independence. Michael Penman retells the story of Robert's rise - his part in William Wallace's revolt against Edward I, his seizing of the Scottish throne after murdering his great rival John Comyn, his excommunication, and devastating battles against an enemy Scottish coalition - climaxing in his victory over Edward II's forces in June 1314. He then draws attention to the second part of the king's life after the victory that made his name.

Robert the Bruce was Scotland's greatest King ever. The Bruce, as he was known, was crowned King of Scots in 1306, a time when the ancient kingdom of Scotland was under harsh and illegal English occupation. As soon as King Robert began his reign, his army was treacherously attacked at Methven, resulting in a calamitous defeat for the Scots which forced the Bruce into hiding. Yet, steadily between 1307 and 1313 King Robert won battle after battle, shunning pitched medieval clashes, and fighting as a guerilla force, a form of warfare which he, perhaps, invented. The war peaked in 1314 when the Bruce faced a formidable English invasion. With brilliant tactics and resolute bravery the vastly outnumbered Scots defeated and routed the knights, archers, and foot soldiers of mighty England at the Battle of Bannockburn. And that's only the first part of this epic tale of the Bruce's long and event-filled life. The Great Scot is a novel filled with valor, treachery, passionate love, journeys great and small, and people of every rank and situation-all from the pages of Scottish history.

King Robert The Bruce is a legendary figure in Scottish History. Along with William Wallace, Robert The Bruce stands as a true patriot and practitioner of Scottish Independence and their fight against English invaders of their country under King Edward I. The jewel in the crown of Bruce's fight for independence was his resounding victory of the vastly larger English army at Bannockburn in 1314. The romance of the victory remains in Scottish hearts throughout the world. The tale of Bruce slaying the English knight De Bohun prior to the battle and then leading the Scots to victory need no embellishment from screenwriters.Films have been made about Wallace and Bruce but perpetrate the myths about them and fall short of facts. Professor Alexander F. Murison was a Scottish born, Professor of Law, who as a barrister and academic presented the histories of Wallace and Bruce as facts. He was not interested in Hollywood fantasy.This book 'King Robert The Bruce' was first published in 1899 but has been edited to included extra notes and a short biograpy of the author, Alexander Falconer Murison. An excellent read for those who prefer fact to fiction.

The iconic figure of Robert the Bruce has gone down through the centuries as one of the most remarkable leaders of all time. With equal parts tenacity and ruthlessness, he had himself crowned King of Scotland after murdering one of his most powerful rivals, and so began the rule of an indomitable military genius unafraid of breaking convention, and more than a few English heads. Indeed, it was under the leadership of King Robert that the Battle of Bannockburn took place – a famous victory snatched by a tiny Scots force against a larger, supposedly more sophisticated English foe. In King and Outlaw medieval expert Chris Brown explores the life of Robert the Bruce, whose remarkable history has merged with legend, and reveals the true story of the outlaw king.
