4.0 out of 5 stars I can highly recommend this book, 28 Sep 2000
By A Customer
For anyone interested in gettinga real feel for the period and the man. It isn't likely to be 100 percent on the nail since like most histories of the period it depends on large tablespoons of myth to fill out what bare bones of fact exist. That being said it is much more accurate in its interpretation of history than Randall Wallaces 'Braveheart'. ( And tho Tranter tends to ramble on a bit here and there, this bookis also better written and characterised. (Oh and it also gets the names of all the main cahracters correct)

5.0 out of 5 stars Scotland's Hero, 6 Sep 2006
By G. M. Buchanan "Page marker" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a story based on the life of William Wallace the hero of Scotland. It is a story of how one man stood against the English king,his appointed leaders in Scotland and all they stood for.It is not a history book.If you want historical fact then go to a reference library. If you want to be entertained by a historical novel based on fact, but not always accurate, then read this book.It is a good read and even better if you happen to be Scottish.

4.0 out of 5 stars Forget "braveheart" Wallace was 6'7 Mel 's nae big nuff !, 8 Mar 1999
By A Customer
The Wallace is an excellent book.It is hard to beleive Scotland survived as a country with all it's nobles warring amongst one another.It took a common "Bravehearted" man like Wallace to show them all including 'The Bruce" how it,s done.Amust read for any scotsman,Not as good as "Bruce Trilogy" but very,very,good
