Excerpt from King Robert the Bruce The present volume on King Robert the Bruce is the historical complement to the former volume on Sir William Wallace. Together they outline, from the' standpoint of the leading spirits, the prolonged and successful struggle Of the Scots against the unprovoked aggression of Edward I.
