by Tom Scott

Sample

ISBN 978 1 904246 16 9 paperback£7.99
Reissued in 2005, the 700th anniversary of Wallace's execution in London in August 1305.
Tales of William Wallace, Guardian of Scotland, freely adapted from The Wallas of Blin Hary.
'The merit of Blin Hary's work, is uniqueness, with passages of excellent poetry here and there, its general standard of versification and the noble tone of most of it, makes it a foundation work of Scottish poetry, and one of the sources of Wallace traditions, however imperfect.
'With Barbour's Brus, it is the epic foundation of Scottish literature and therefore required reading for every born Scot.' -- Tom Scott
