Much of William Wallace's life has now been steeped in myth, where in actuality very little is known about him. Most of what we do know deriving from primary accounts center around the battles from 1297-1298 and when he was captured in August 1305. Nevertheless, William Wallace did, for various reason, gain a symbolic importance. Later stories, such as <i>Exploits and Death of William Wallace </i> helped to create a romantic and tragic character, perhaps more similar to later figures rather than William Wallace.
