Castles of England, Scotland and Wales by Paul Johnson
In the COUNTRY series, Johnson takes the reader on an illustrated tour of castles. He traces each stage of their development from Norman times through Plantagenet and Edwardian expansion in Wales, Tudor strengthening of the coastal defences, the Civil War and their gradual decay until the extraordinary mock castles of the 19th century.
Paul Johnson was born in 1928. He edited the New Statesman in the 1960s and has written over forty books. His Modern Times, a history of the world from the 1920s to the 1990s, has been translated into more than fifteen languages. As well as a weekly column in the Spectator, he contributes to newspapers all over the world.
