• Notes

  Patrick McGoohan played Edward I in Braveheart, a movie about Willia m Wallace. This king had a nickname for practically every side of hi s personality. Edward was tall and nicknamed Longshanks for his long l imbs. He was religious, but this king was also devious and called th e Leopard. He was a strong fighter who launched invasions into both Sc otland and Wales. Edward I was called the Hammer of the Scots, and als o built several Welsh fortresses. Some historians call Edward the "fat her of the longbow", believing -- possibly mistakenly -- that he intro duced this supposedly Welsh weapon to the English army. William Walla ce was, according to the English of the day, "a runaway from righteous ess, a robber, a committer of sacrilege, an arsonist and a murderer , more cruel than Herod and more debauched in his insanity than Nero. " (quoted in Hallam's Four Gothic Kings., p.156) According to the Scot tish, popular legend, and moviegoers everywhere, Wallace was a great h ero. Wallace beat Edward I's forces in 1297, but lost to them the nex t year. In 1305, the English finally captured him. He was quite litera lly hung, drawn and quartered.
