Abstract

In this essay, the hitherto unknown history of Sir William Bruce's early life and career is revealed through important newly discovered sources. Until now, the Kincardine Papers had previously concealed the fascinating commercial and political ventures of the gentleman-turned-architect. This thorough examination of his early career brings forward information crucial to providing a full under-standing of Bruce's approach to architecture and his later role as Surveyor of the King's Works.
