The Way to True Peace and Rest by Robert Bruce Pdf
It was said of Robert Bruce that 'no man in his time spake with such evidence and power of the Spirit'. One is certainly left with that impression after reading The Way to True Peace and Rest, his six sermons on Isaiah 38, a chapter that records the illness that afflicted King Hezekiah of Judah and his reaction to it. Although various sicknesses are common to all humanity, yet people react in very different ways when such trials are visited upon them. With a wonderful blend of faithful exposition, keen insight, and practical application, Bruce urges his hearers to 'take heed to the various aspects of this account, that we may learn how to conduct ourselves in the event of our suffering some serious disease; thus, learning from King Hezekiah's behaviour, we may come to obtain the same comfort he experienced.' Translated and edited by David C. Searle.
The life of Robert Bruce is one of the greatest comeback stories in history. Heir and magnate, shrewd politician, briefly 'king of summer' and then a desperate fugitive who nevertheless returned from exile to recover the kingdom he claimed, Bruce became a gifted military leader and a wise statesman, a leader with vision and energy. Colm McNamee combines the most up to date scholarship on this crucial figure in the history of the British Isles with lucid explanation of the medieval context, so that readers of all backgrounds can appreciate Bruce's enormous contribution to the historical impact not just on Scotland, but on England and Ireland too. It is designed to encourage popular reassessment of Bruce as politician, warrior, monarch and saviour of Scottish identity from extinction at the hands of the Edwardian superstate. Peeling back the layers of misconception and propaganda, the author paints an accurate, sympathetic but balanced portrait of a much beloved national hero who has fallen out of fashion of late for no good reason.
Robert the Bruce (1274-1329) was the famous unifier of Scotland and defeater of the English at Bannockburn - the legendary hero responsible for Scottish independence. Michael Penman retells the story of Robert's rise - his part in William Wallace's revolt against Edward I, his seizing of the Scottish throne after murdering his great rival John Comyn, his excommunication, and devastating battles against an enemy Scottish coalition - climaxing in his victory over Edward II's forces in June 1314. He then draws attention to the second part of the king's life after the victory that made his name.

Robert the Bruce, King of Scots by Ronald McNair Scott Pdf
Robert the Bruce had himself crowned King of Scots at Scone on a frozen March morning in 1306. After years of struggle, Scotland had been reduced to a vassal state by Edward I of England and its people lived in poverty. On the day he seized the crown Bruce renewed the fight for Scotland's freedom, and let forth a battle cry that would echo through the centuries. Using contemporary accounts, Ronald McNair Scott tells the story of Scotland's legendary leader, and one of Europe's most remarkable medieval kings. It is a story with episodes as romantic as those of King Arthur, but also one which belongs in the annals of Scottish History, and has shaped a nation.
The Bruces of fourteenth-century Scotland were formidable and enthusiastic warriors. Whilst much has been written about events as they happened in Scotland during the chaotic years of the first part of the fourteenth century, England's war with Robert the Bruce profoundly affected the whole of the British Isles. Scottish raiders struck deep into the heartlands of Yorkshire and Lancashire; Robert's younger brother, Edward Bruce, was proclaimed King of Ireland and came close to subduing the country; the Isle of Man was captured and a Welsh sea-port was raided; and in the North Sea Scots allied with German and Flemish pirates to cripple England's vital wool trade and disrupt its war effort. Packed with detail and written with a strong and involving narrative thread, this is the first book to link up the various theatres of war and discuss the effect of the wars of the Bruces outside Scotland.

Leading Beyond Your Presence by Robert M. Bruce Pdf
Where have all the trustworthy, credible, accountable leaders gone? Leadership today has been tarnished by entitled, selfish, unaccountable, untrustworthy individuals whose only agenda is to seek power, titles and positions. No venue has gone untouched, whether it be public, private or political. These leadership posers have created an environment that has precipitated diminished expectations, lowered standards and increased acceptance of a diluted version of leadership. Retired Ontario Provincial Police Chief Superintendent Robert M. Bruce, a decorated thirty-three-year veteran, shares his leadership journey by combining his extensive experience and observations as both a student of leadership and, more importantly, a practitioner. This senior police commander, coach, and corporate speaker provides a unique, insightful blueprint to leading beyond your presence, becoming the leader you want to be led by. Leading Beyond Your Presence is an authentic, no-nonsense approach to trustworthy leadership at the point of impact where it matters most, serving and inspiring others, engaging leaders with an immediate action plan that provides practical tools, strategic guidance and bona de examples to becoming an exemplary leader in any situation or circumstance, regardless of the leadership role. It challenges leaders to raise their standards, increase expectations and never again have people cornered into settling for anything less than the very best of their leaders. Leading Beyond Your Presence establishes that great leadership is attainable and necessary for those willing do the unceremonious preparation it takes to lead, while bringing to light the catastrophic consequences of accepting the status quo of leadership mediocrity. Leadership is an honour and privilege to those entrusted to lead; being worthy of that trust is a continuous journey. Leading Beyond Your Presence is an imperative vanguard on anyone's leadership journey.
