Synopsis
A seat of government and the private residence of its owner, a castle was also a military base and stronghold for the surrounding region. The development of these fortifications during England's medieval period is examined in this profusely illustrated book. Early chapters deal with earthworks, the Roman station, and beginnings of the stone castle after the Norman conquest, while later sections consider fortified towns and castles of the later Middle Ages.
