Excerpt: ... conduct, they were shipped by their father on board a vessel without rudder or oars, and by some strange chance found their way to the shores of a distant island, since known as Albion. There were no men; but, from the embraces of demons, who inhabited the island, these ladies produced a race of giants, by whom the country was possessed until Brutus, great-grandson of Eneas the Trojan, banished on account of the accidental death of his father, arrived at this distant region with his companions. By them the giants were subdued; and thereupon Albion, now called Britain, was divided among the three sons of Brutus, named respectively Locrinus, Albanactus, and Cambrus. From Cambrus descended the people of Wales; from Albanactus the Scots of Albyn; while Locrinus and his descendants possessed the remainder of the island, with a right of superiority over the others.1 Some years after the death of Brutus, a certain king of Hungary, named Humber, came on board ship to Albyn, and slew Albanactus; but, being pursued by Locrinus, was drowned in a river, thenceforth called by his name the Humber---and so Albyn reverted to Locrinus. Afterwards Albyn was given out to Brenius, one of the two sons of Dunwallo, to be held under the king of Britain, according to the Trojan customs. From these transactions flowed, among other important consequences, the feudal superiority of the kings of England over the kingdom of Scotland.2 It may seem incredible, but is yet true, that the greater part of this preposterous story was adopted, and put forward in the claim of Edward I. to be " Lord Paramount" of Scotland, and afterwards incorporated in a solemn pleading addressed xiv.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Full-length study of the warfare between England and Scotland in the mid fourteenth century. The Second Scottish War of Independence began in 1332, only four years after the previous conflict had ended. Fought once more for the continued freedom of Scotland from English conquest, the war also witnessed a revival of Scottish civil conflict as the Bruce-Balliol fight for the Scottish crown recommenced once more. Breaking out sporadically until peace was agreed in 1357, the Second Scottish War is a conflict that resides still in the shadow of that which preceded it: compared to the wars of William Wallace and Robert Bruce, Edward I and Edward II, this second phase of Anglo-Scottish warfare is neither well-known nor well-understood. This book sets out to examine in detail the military campaigns of this period, to uncover the histories of those who fought in the war, and to analyse the behaviour of combatants from both sides during ongoing periods of both civil war and Anglo-Scottish conflict.It analyses contemporary records and literary evidence in order to reconstruct the history of this conflict and reconsiders current debates regarding: the capabilities of the Scottish military; the nature of contemporary combat; the ambitions and abilities of fourteenth-century military leaders; and the place of chivalry on the medieval battlefield. Dr Iain A. MacInnes is a Lecturer and Programme Leader in Scottish History at the UHI Centre forHistory, University of the Highlands and Islands.

Download or read book The Second Scottish Wars of Independence 1332 1363 written by Chris Brown and published by History Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The least well known of Britain's medieval wars, the Second Scottish War of Independence lasted for more than thirty years. The Scots were utterly defeated in three major battles. The nobility was destroyed at Dupplin Muir, the rank and file died in droves at Halidon Hill and at Neville's Cross, the Scottish King was captured. So how did England lose the war? The wars of William Wallace and Robert the Bruce cast a long shadow in Scottish history. The collapse and recovery of the Bruce cause in the reign of his son, David II, has not attracted much attention among historians of medieval warfare. Drawn from English and Scottish state papers and chronicle accounts, this new book is an analysis of the armies and campaigns that would develop the tactics that gave English forces the dramatic triumphs of the Hundred Years War.
