Books by John Paul Davis

The Tower of London is an iconic building, having held many famous prisoners since it was first built in the 1100s.

From blood-soaked heroes to long-lost legends, despotic pirates to wailing hags, _Castles of Wales_ offers a fresh investigation into many of its fascinating fortresses.

Castles are among the most visited tourist sights in Britain and Ireland, and the book will act as a companion and historical guide.

This is the story of how the varying actions of two very different kings both threatened and created the English way of life, and ultimately put England on the path to its Lost Civil War.
