REVIEWS OF H A CULLEY'S PREVIOUS BOOKSExcellent E book which I enjoyed enormously.The author really knows his British history and can tell a good story that should appeal to all ages from teen on up. Another solid, good read from H A Culley.I recommend these books to any lover of historical fiction.Good plot and characterisation.SYNOPSISThis is the second book in H A Culley' trilogy about Robert the Bruce, the King of Scots who wrested Scotland's independence from England in the early fourteenth century. Robert has just been crowned King of Scots after the murder of his main rival, the Red Comyn, but he loses his first battle and becomes a fugitive with practically every man's hand turned against him.In the first years of his reign he struggles for survival, becoming a fugitive a second time with just his squire by his side at one stage. Three of his brothers are executed in the most gruesome manner and his wife, daughter and sister are captured and held prisoner in England. However, his indomitable spirit refuses to submit to these reverses and, during the fight to recover his kingdom, he develops the art of guerrilla warfare and remarkable techniques for capturing castle after castle.Finally, in June 1314, he faces the army of his nemesis, Edward the Second of England, at Bannockburn. Despite being heavily outnumbered and without heavy cavalry, he inflicts a crushing defeat on Edward. Now he can begin the long and difficult process of re-establishing Scotland as an independent nation.
