The book examines the legal and political implications of their relationship and the legitimacy of their children, including Robert III, who succeeded his father as King of Scotland. Riddell delves into the historical records and documents relating to the case, providing a detailed analysis of the evidence and arguments presented by both sides. He also explores the wider social and cultural context of the time, shedding light on the attitudes and beliefs that shaped the debate around legitimacy and inheritance.
