William Wallace: A Life from Beginning to End

Scottish History, Book 1

By: Hourly History

Narrated by: Mike Nelson

William Wallace; if ever there was a champion in the annals of Scottish history, he was it. Known as a proud Scot who rose through the ranks to challenge the English king, Wallace was a mere man who became larger than life - large enough even for the likes of Mel Gibson to play him in Braveheart for movie-going audiences on the silver screen. But who was William Wallace? What separates the real man from the myth?

Chapters include:

• A Country in Need of a Hero
• Early Life and Legend
• The Battle of Stirling Bridge
• Wallace’s Invasion of England
• Defeat at Falkirk
• Capture and Execution

And much more...

In this book, we will take a look at the life and the legend of Sir William Wallace in its entirety.

Great Listen!

Superbly read with the right touch of dramatic flair to liven it up! No bias, just facts, exactly how learning about history should be.

Interesting, but...

The book is primarily myth and hearsay. It does generated respect for this fierce warrior.

Short but good.

Will read longer version but a good first taste of Scottish history and William Wallace.
