Life of Sir William Wallace of Elderslie, Complete 2 Volumes by John D. Carrick
William Wallace is one of the most famous freedom fighters in history, and over 700 years after his death he is still remembered as Scotland�s beloved hero. But while the movie Braveheart helped make him a household name, and he is commemorated across Scotland as a natural leader and a loyal son of his homeland, he is also �the most mysterious of the leaders of the Scottish resistance to Edward I.� This is because, paradoxically, the very famous soldier is also one of the least well known. In fact, the mystery surrounding Wallace is figuring out precisely, or even vaguely, who he was. Where did this champion of Scottish independence come from? Who was his family? What did he do before emerging from obscurity with the brutal murder of William Heselrig, the English sheriff of Lanark, in May 1297?
