About this audiobook
A classic story brought to life through Jim Weiss's thrilling, thoughtfully and gently abridged narration. One of G.A. Henty's most stirring adventures tells the story of William Wallace and Robert the Bruce as they battle the brutal seizure of their native Scotland by England's King Edward I (1326-1314). With the Scottish heroes is the courageous young Archie Forbes, whose daring, insightful mind is as sharp as his flashing sword. In Freedom's Cause delivers dramatic portrayals of real Scottish and English leaders in their native countries, and places the listener in the middle of famous medieval battles, sudden swordplay in narrow streets, and dramatic tests of friendship and love.
