A powerful Earl with estates nearby coveted the castle and its surrounding land. Under the guise of protecting King John from treachery, he declared his intention of 'smashing the castle to the ground, hanging the garrison amidst its ruins and wiping the pestilent Swaynes off the face of the earth'. Lord Swayne had some advantages however, one of which was that he held the Earl's son, Gregory, captive. This is a fascinating account of a medieval siege. It is also the story of the growing friendship between two boys, Lord Swayne's son Roger, and his prisoner, Gregory. Robert Cedric Sherriff (1896-1975), was an English writer best known for his play 'Journey's End', which was based on his experiences as an army officer in the First World War, now a major motion picture starring Paul Bettany, Sam Claflin and Asa Butterfield. He wrote several plays, many novels, and multiple screenplays, and was nominated for an Academy Award and two BAFTA awards. Jacket by Graham Humphreys (illustrator).…

Sherriff (1896-1975) left school in 1914 and began working as an insurance clerk. Conscripted as an officer in the 9th Battalion of the East Surrey Regiment, he took part in the battles of Vimy Ridge and Loos, and was seriously wounded at Passchendaele in 1917. He returned to work as an insurance adjuster from 1918 until 1928 and his seventh and most successful play, Journey's End was based on his wartime experiences. It premiered on 9th December 1928, directed by James Whale and starring the 21 year old Laurence Olivier. A film version was released on 14th April 1930, again directed by Whale and produced by Gainsborough Pictures, a company set up by Michael Balcon (1896-1977), Graham Cutts and a young Alfred Hitchcock.
