Description:
This book tells the story of the battle that represented the climax of the career of King Robert the Bruce, and has since remained the most famous battle in Scottish history - the battle of Bannockburn. In 1307 King Edward I of England, 'The Hammer of the Scots' and William Wallace's nemesis, died at Burgh-on-Sands. His son, Edward II, was not from the same mould; idle and apathetic, he refused to take on the burdens of kingship, surrounding himself with favourites. The Scots under Robert the Bruce now had a chance to recover from the grievous punishment Edward I had inflicted upon them. By 1313 Bruce had captured every English-held castle bar Stirling. Faced with the complete collapse of the English position in Scotland even Edward II had no choice but to respond.
