David Robertson Ross, a passionately patriotic Scot, specialised as a writer and historian in the story of the great Scottish hero, Sir William Wallace. In 2005, to commemorate the 700th anniversary of Wallace’s execution, he trekked the 450 miles from Robroyston in Glasgow to London, retracing the route his hero followed to his grisly execution in 1305.
