Scotland's First War of Independence gives an accurate and lavishly illustrated account of this time, making it accessible to a wide audience. Recommended by the Robert the Bruce Commemorative Trust, and a chosen textbook of the University of California, Scotland's War of Independence is also a reference book in many of Scotland's Primary Schools. Book Reviews:
Stirling Observer"Ms Crome has produced a work to be proud of; the book's most striking feature is the excellent use of photographs, diagrams and drawings (many by the author) which accompany the text. It looks great and helps to create a convincing impression of what the 13th century Scotland must have been like. 'Scotland's First War of Independence' is a good read. It is well-researched and told with enthusiasm."
Scots Magazine:"A well-illustrated guide to the turbulent years from 1286 to 1330, which chronicles the era in detail, illustrating the key events with reconstruction, illustrations and maps."
The Leopard:"I was content to sit back and let Mrs Crome tell me all... the rich visual images are deftly associated with the text. I thoroughly enjoyed this majestic succession of heraldic displays, the clever maps of battles and routes over land and sea." |
