Freeman is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume continues to explore the political dynamics and conflicts of early medieval England, particularly focusing on the reign of William Rufus and the subsequent rise of Henry I. The book delves into important events and relationships, such as the wars in Scotland, Northumberland, and Wales, emphasizing their implications for the development of English power. The opening of the volume introduces the backdrop of tumultuous relations between England and Scotland during the late 11th century. It outlines the climax of King Malcolm’s tensions with William Rufus, leading to Malcolm's fateful invasion of England and eventual death at Alnwick. The narrative sets the scene for the fierce political maneuvering typical of the time and highlights the intertwined fates of these kingdoms. Additionally, the text foreshadows the impact of Malcolm's wife, Margaret, and their children's futures, as it hints at the rise of a lineage that would continue to affect the Scottish throne.
