The Medieval Castle Manual
Hardback Edition: 1
An illustrated, behind the scenes look at medieval castles and how they combined two purposes, a weapon of war and a home for an entire community. Using the beautiful construction of a medieval castle at Gudelon as the starting point for each chapter, the book
