I always enjoy this author's books as his enthusiasm for history and Scotland are found from beginning to end. If you find yourself going to Scotland you can take them along and use them as a tour guide as well. I've purchased the rest of his books and intend on spending the winter reading them.

A book about Scotland's William Wallace, with information on how to find sites in Scotland that are linked to him. Perfect for those traveling to Scotland with an interest in doing this.

If you are interested in William Wallace this book will give you a insight into his life and the places where he has been recognised over the years.
The nationalist tone and the references to the movie Braveheart begin to grate after a while , however the factual geographical places to visit kept me hooked.

Very Informative for people who love history and independence with a laugh.
