Publisher's summary

Discover the remarkable life of Robert the Bruce...

Robert the Bruce is one of the most iconic figures of Scottish history. Born in Scotland’s desperate hour of need, Robert stepped forward to answer the call. In the early 1300s, the situation looked bleak for the Scottish with the might of England and its eager monarch King Edward I threatening to crush any resistance to his rule.

In 1305, the former freedom fighter William Wallace had already been captured and cruelly executed. Robert the Bruce and his family initially tried to stay out of the fray, but the sudden onslaught of a series of circumstances would soon dictate Robert’s ultimate destiny. He would be made a king without a kingdom, forced to claw his way to the throne that was rightfully his.

It was on the shoulders of Robert the Bruce to right the wrongs of the past - would he be up for the challenge? Listen to his trials and tribulations in this book to see just how this dynamic piece of Scottish history played out.

Discover a plethora of topics such as:

  • Early Life
  • A Guardian of Scotland
  • The Murder of John Comyn
  • The Rise of Robert I
  • The Fight for Independence

Movie quotes are not historical sources

The opening chapter of this audiobook begins with a quote from the movie “Braveheart” with no clarification that it is a fictional movie quote. They just say the quote and say “Robert the Bruce” after it like this is a legitimate quote from a reputable historical text. That’s a red flag right there. Avoid this book.
