Publisher's Synopsis
Freedom's Cause: A Tale of Wallace and Bruce tells the story of the Scottish chieftain's valiant effort to free his country from English tyranny under Edward Longshanks in the 13th century. The arduous series of conflicts fought under the direction of great leaders William Wallace and Robert Bruce emphasize their eventual victory. G. A. Henty made an effort to give his tales a realistic historical background, despite the fact that they were seen through the eyes of a fictional character named Archie Forbes, whose lands had been unfairly seized. In order to battle alongside the storied chieftains for the independence of their nation, Archie gathers a company of scouts for the Scottish army. Henty's books, which were widely read in his day and reflect a distinctively Victorian perspective on the history of the British Empire, are still around today. Readers can read this amazing novel to know the complete story of Wallace and Bruce!
