The Wallace Muse

"The Wallace Muse" is an anthology of poem and song inspired by William Wallace - one of Scotland's greatest heroes - composed by some of Scotland's greatest writers. Robert Burns, William Wordsworth, Robert Southey and other literary greats are represented, and a selection of new poems by contemporary Scottish and Scotland-based writers such as Edwin Morgan and Rab Wilson illustrates Wallace's continuing influence on the nation's literature.
