The Castle Package
Does not include frame
Once great symbols of power and domination, castles are tangible reminders of Britain and Ireland’s turbulent and bloody past—one of royalty, noblemen, intrigue, and tyranny. Studded throughout the landscape, these formidable strongholds are inextricably entwined with the rich and resonant history and ever-changing terrain of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
Beautifully captured in this gloriously illustrated volume are 115 of the most majestic and significant castles. Each has its own enigmatic tale to be told: the forbidding Tower of London and regal Windsor Castle strongly evoke the age-old power struggles of the English Crown, while the seeming tranquility of Eilean Donan hides a violent history of hermits and hostages, and the grandeur of Caernarfon obscures its past as a fearsome colonial settlement—even the magical stones of Blarney conceal bygone confl ict, myth and mystery.
