Castle

A history of the buildings that shaped medieval Britain

Marc Morris

A general introduction to British castles. Readable but not quite a match for Medieval Castles by Creigton and Higham. I spoke with Marc after the book's release and he wished, at that time, he had been more assertive of the new thinking about Bodiam as a 'show' castle.
The TV programme with which the book was associated has a web site at http://www.channel4.com/history/microsites/C/castle/
