Plantagenet Somerset Fry, who also gave us "Kings & Queens of England and Scotland," is a deft hand a giving fascinating tidbits of information and lots of great graphics to keep the pages turning. While there is much more gray in "Castles," it is a comfortable mix of scholarly information and pedestrian description that allows a pseudo-historian like myself to experience the world of castles throughout the centuries. ...

Product Description

For centuries, Scotland’s castles protected her people from invasion—but eventually most lay in ruins. In the 1820’s, artist William Daniell drew the remains of these once-grand structures. For the first time, these illustrations appear in a fascinating collection alongside more recent photos of ruins and restorations, and accompanied by fascinating tales of these fortresses. The stories paint a uniquely human portrait of the castle, which was central to the lives of all Scots whatever their social station, in peacetime and war.

This is a beautiful book with a fair amount of historical information; however, I know the history was not as thorough as it could have been.I also didn't like that it had more drawings than actual photographs.Still, the photos they did have were gorgeous as were some of the drawings.I would still recommend it to people with interests in this field. ...

Urquhart Castle is one of Scotland’s best-known sites, an instantly recognizable symbol of the Highlands: its shattered tower rises high over Loch Ness. It, and the Great Glen on which it stands, also played a large role in the country’s history. Using physical evidence found on the grounds, this colorful and comprehensive guide traces the development of castle and glen, from the Pictish occupation to the 19th century arrival of industry. There’s even information on the Loch’s famed monster!
