When the English King Edward I attempts to assert his authority over all of Scotland, a young noble by the name of Archie Forbes, answers the call to defend his homeland. Archie joins the great leader William Wallace, who galvanizes the Scottish resistance. Treachery soon thwarts the growing movement and it appears that the English are in Scotland to stay. Archie encourages Robert the Bruce to take up the Scottish cause and attempt to free Scotland. Along the way Archie is imprisoned by a jealous Scottish noble, experiences a violent storm at sea and seeks to rescue a bonnie maiden. Will Scotland lift the yoke of King Edward's oppression? Will Archie survive the many battles he must face? These questions and many more will be answered upon reading In Freedom's Cause by G. A. Henty. Set in the early fourteenth-century England, and Scotland, this book includes more than one-hundred-and-fifty geographical, historical, and explanatory footnotes to aid the modern reader.
