Recent scholarship has illuminated one of the most exciting battles of Scottish history, showing it to be as historically significant as it was romantic and bloody. This book carries the reader through the politics and plans of a military campaign of the Middle Ages, including the logistical sinews of war, the drama of court intrigue and the violent clash of soldier against soldier. Using recent studies on weapons, warfare and Scottish history, as well as sound archival sources, this book opens the files on a year's preparation for a massive English invasion of Scotland.
