Description

Tales of King Robert The Bruce by Tom Scott

Freely adapted from ‘The Brus’ of John Barbour (14th Century). Barbour's 'The Brus' is a true epic – the story in verse of Scotland's great national hero. Tom Scott had adapted the poem into simple idiomatic English suitable for reading from the age of about ten upwards. It is a free 'translation' adding historical detail and 'pointing up' Barbour in such ways, imaginary and factual, as are necessary for the modern reader, always aiming at clarity of picture and narrative. The Bruce story is one of the world's greatest romances and all children everywhere (and many adults!) should find it enthralling and exciting.
