Writers behind an ambitious book which will tell the story of the characters connected to the Declaration of Arbroath, gathered in the town as the manuscript nears completion.

The project has seen more than 40 people from all walks of life in Scotland contribute a chapter on each of the signatories of the Declaration, as well as biographies of King Robert the Bruce and Abbot of Arbroath Abbey, Bernard de Linton.

The book, titled Declaration of Arbroath: The People’s History, is set to be published in April as the town embarks on a community-led programme of events to mark the 700th anniversary of the signing of the document.
