Bring history back to life through Jim Hodges' historically accurate, exciting, and edifying audio recordings.

Liberty or death - this was the choice the people of 14th-century Scotland faced if they rose up against their English ruler. Most would say it was no choice at all. Many of the Scottish nobles were English supporters. Few could be expected to rise up against the numerically overwhelming English army. The hero of the story, Archibald Forbes, joins the struggle for Scottish freedom led by the valiant Sir William Wallace and Robert the Bruce. The extraordinary valor and personal prowess of these men rival the deeds of the mythical heroes of chivalry. Henty weaves a wonderful story around the actual events of 1314 at Bannockburn.

The Henty Historical Novel Collection, written by George Henty in the 1800s, covers many time periods in history throughout the world. In this collection, you will learn history, geography, and vocabulary while also discovering hero characters for your children to emulate.

Would have listened to this if there had been a genuine deep, mature voice reading the story - what a disappointment, had to stop at first chapter listening to such an annoying, high pitched, American, robot like voice reading to me - ok so if it has to be an American voice, how about one with depth, intellect sounding and soothing the listener in to the story , perhaps a Morgan Freeman or James Earl Jones like - if this is what Amazon/audible have as their best story tellers for audio books , I’m going back to reading while driving to work !

What is with the annoying voice overs ???
