Warwick Castle: The Finest Mediaeval Castle in England (Official Souvenir Guidebook)

As you stand and look at the magnificent walls and towers of Warwick Castle, rising sheer above the quiet murmur of the English countryside, what you see is the fabric of history. For these stones and stairwells, these corridors and ramparts are witnesses to the lives of the powerful and dispossessed, the rich and poor of generation after generation. Here it was that affairs of state and the fate of nations were decided. Here it was that kings were made. And broken. The ages have passed. The people have long gone. But, as you walk around the castle, it is easy to imagine it still echoing with their presence. Guide includes a History of the Castle, the Dungeon, Towers and Ramparts, Bear and Clarence Towers, the Curtain Walls, Guy's Tower, The Gatehouse and Barbican, Caesar's Tower, the Armoury, Great Halls, and much more. Fully illustrated throughout. A quality item to learn more about the castle, even if not actually visiting., ISBN13: B00374N83C ISBN10: B00374N83C Material Type: paperback
