Across twenty-one castles in England, Scotland and Wales, step inside the hidden histories of Britain.
What was it really like to live, love and die within the walls of a medieval stronghold? While these ruins are now known for postcard-perfect views and tourist visits, they were once the stages for a world of ruthless ambition, forbidden passion and blood-soaked vengeance.
In Britain Built in Stone, history presenter and photographer Evelyn Edwards takes readers on an unvarnished, intimate journey behind the battlements of Britain’s most iconic strongholds. From the 'Welsh Boudicca', Princess Gwenllian, leading an army into battle to the gates of Kidwelly, to the infamous 'Black Dinner' at Edinburgh Castle that inspired Game of Thrones, Edwards captures the human stories behind the stones.
Written with cinematic flair and deep historical authority, Britain Built in Stone is the ultimate, accessible guide to the power plays, scandals, and living history of Britain’s greatest strongholds.
