Summary: Great book for planning a tour of English castles
Comment: In the summer of 1999 I took my son on a tour of medievalEnglish castles. To plan the trip I looked at a number of books todecide which castles to visit. This book, written with thesponsorship of English Heritage, describes the different types of castles (e.g.-keep, walled, moated) built throughout the history of England, Scotland and Wales, including where to find the best existing examples of each type. I used the map in the book to plot the locations of these castles, and chose a dozen in London and the surrounding counties to go see. The book was of invaluable assistance--not only in making the selection, but in describing their history and most interesting features. The photography is fantastic. This book was the keystone to a once in a lifetime experience.

Summary: excellent little book, a real value
Comment: This is a great little book at a super price. Lots of quality color and black and white photos and a top notch narrative to go along with them. This book is dense enough to hold the attention of a sophisticated reader and accessible enough not to bore the casual reader.
