1314. On a marsh-fringed plain south of Stirling Castle, King Robert the Bruce led the Scottish army in a singularly devastating victory over the English.
Bannockburn was Scotland’s greatest battlefield triumph, achieved against the odds by a combination of brilliant tactical leadership and the fatal overconfidence of the English King, Edward II.
On the 700th anniversary of the battle, Peter Reese’s definitive history shines a spotlight on this pivotal moment in Scottish History and considers the wider implications of this momentous victory.
