Paperback. Get beyond the gates of the Castle to see a side of Windsor you never knew. This thriving, bustling town may have been the home of the Royal Family for almost 1,000 years, but it is generations of local residents who have made Windsor a truly special place to be. In this book, locals and travellers alike will delight in tales that explore the mysterious, mythological and also mortal side of Windsor, weaving through tales of deceit and scandal, heroism and genius, to paint a picture of a town that is breaking away from its Royal connections and emerging as a world-class destination in its own right. Learn how an emerging craft beer scene is bringing brewing back to Windsor. Discover local characters who have created museums and art galleries in the most unlikely ways. Explore the hidden histories of everything from a pub with a tombstone in the saloon, to a cafe in an old ticket office, to the world's first augmented reality mural. If you thought Windsor was just the Castle, the Great Park, Eton College and Legoland, you're in for a surprise. AUTHOR: Jonjo Maudsley is a writer, editor and historian from Bracknell, Berkshire. By day, he manages copywriting agency Scon, by night he runs the Bracknell Writers Group, and on lucky occasions he gets to pen travel stories for the likes of The Mirror and the Independent. His secret passion is the study of urban history, a subject he took all the way to Master's level. James Riley is a photographer and videographer from Bracknell, Berkshire, and a graduate of Solent University's renowned TV and Video Production course. He is the founder of Ellipsis Creative, a perennially booked-out photography business in London.
