For over 2,000 years, fortifications on the Dover cliffs have protected this stretch of English coast closest to the continent of Europe.

This newly updated and expanded guide contains plans, maps, eyewitness accounts and historic photographs of this famous and iconic fortress that dominates the White Cliffs and the Straits of Dover.
