Set in 1296 to 1314, this is the story of Sir William Wallace and Robert the Bruce, and how they freed Scotland at the Battle of Bannockburn. Our young Hero is Archie Forbes who becomes the ardent follower of Wallace and forms a troop of scouts for the Scottish army. After Falkirk and Wallace's death, he aligns with Bruce. Adventures abound in the moors of Scotland as Archie's cold steel is bloodied in the cause for Scottish independence. He is able to reclaim his estates wrongfully taken by neighbors and he joins in the final victory at Bannockburn. A truly wonderful tale, full of adventure as only G.A. Henty can pen. I highly advise this for any reader young or old, but suggest you get the hard cover version instead as it will last longer, which is why I give this 4 rather then 5.
