With the release of the film Outlaw King about Robert the Bruce (1274-1329), a Scottish national hero and King of Scots during the First War of Scottish Independence, we thought it would be a good idea to share some of our resources related to him.
- Unofficial Royalty: Robert I, King of Scots (Robert the Bruce)
