David the Prince

David the Prince by Tranter, Nigel G.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780340279106.

Set in the twelth century, the incredible story of one of Scotlands greatest kings. Half-Celt and half-Saxon, determined King David who took hold of his backward, patriarchal, strife-ridden country and – against all the odds – pushed and dragged it to the forefront of Christendoms advancing nations. A story of independence, singlemindedness and hard-headed leadership. But also, through the turbulent years of his reign, a story of devotion – to the woman he admired and loved, Queen Matilda.
