Grab Braveheart: From Hollywood To Holyrood Compiled By Lin Anderson Digital
book is interesting for the movie and Wallace trivia it contains despite the fact that it is poorly written for a professional novelist.
Braveheart reached a global audience with its powerful retelling of the almost forgotten story of William Wallace and his struggle to defend Scotland's freedom.
Described as "the most politically influential movie of theth century", it also had a part to play in the political change that swept Scotland, mobilising public opinion to aid the return of a Scottish Parliament after a gap ofyears.
Braveheart: From Hollywood to Holyrood is the first book about this movie phenomenon, discussing the life and legacy of William Wallace through the modern image of the hero as presented in the film.
Written with the cooperation of Randall Wallace, author of the screenplay and novelisation of Braveheart, and including never before published photographs, this is the longawaited handbook for Braveheart fans around the world.
