Abstract
Modern scholars have all but ignored Archibald's contributions to not only his family's prominence in the fifteenth century, but also to the success of the Scots in keeping the English out of Scotland. Therefore, it is my intention in this study to examine his life, to place them in their proper historical perspective, and to answer the questions proposed in this thesis. Perhaps as a result of this examination of Archibald the Grim, more interest in fourteenth century Scotland as a source of the power struggles of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries will be generated and more substantive work will be done.
