Sir William Wallace of Ellerslie is one of history’s greatest heroes, but also one of its greatest enigmas – a shadowy figure whose edges have been blurred by myth and legend. Even the date and place of his birth have been mis-stated – until now. James Mackay uses all his skills as a historical detective to produce this definitive biography, telling the incredible story of a man who, without wealth or noble birth, rose to become Guardian of Scotland. William Wallace, with superb generalship and tactical genius, led a country with no previous warlike tradition to triumph gloriously over the much larger, better-armed and better-trained English forces. Seven hundred years later, the heroism and betrayal, the valiant deeds and the dark atrocities, and the struggle of a small nation against a brutal and powerful empire, still create a compelling tale.
