5.0 out of 5 stars Great Historical Fiction and Adventure, May 12 2004

This review is from: In Freedom's Cause: A Story of Wallace and Bruce (Paperback)

Freedom's Cause has a great plot and a fictional character as the protaganist. He starts off as a teen and then grows up through the time of William Wallace and Robert the Bruce. The story is full of adventure, friendship, loyalty, honor, heroics, and history. Good values are presented. This book is great for anyone looking for something on Scottish history and which also is a great nove. This book is as good or better then any Nigel Tranter book I have read like The Wallace and The Bruce Trilogy

The accuracy of the historical period is excellent and I have read much on this area of Scottish history. The persons discussed, the geography talked about, and the timeline presented is very accurate. I highly reccomend this and can't wait to read another Henty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Learned more reading this than a history textbook, Sep 25 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: In Freedom's Cause: A Story of Wallace and Bruce (Paperback)

This book is one of the most fascinating and interesting to readers who care about the past. For people who do not like history or to learn about the exciting feats accomplished by our predeseccors, I do not reccomend this book.
The story is about young Archie Forbes, a young man destined to be cheif of his clan. His father was killed when Archie was just a boy and his lands taken away by the Kerr family, nobles from nearby England. While Archie is determined to reclaim his family's lands he meets William Wallace and helps in the scottish revolution.
