_THE TOWER OF LONDON_:
Fortress, Palace, and Prison
_By CHARLES G. HARPER_
Author of “Rural Nooks round London,” “The Histories of English
Roads,” etc., etc. With 50 Illustrations.
Crown 8vo, =6s.= net.
The Tower of London occupies a position in the history of England
unmatched by any of the ancient castles of the land. From the time of
William the Conqueror the Tower of London figured forth more and more
closely as the centuries went on the story of the English Sovereigns
and the English people, and it is not too much to say that the intimate
story of the Tower is, in fact, the history of England. In this book an
account will be found alike of the Architecture and the living history
of the place, and of the prisoners whose blood was shed upon Tower
Green or Tower Hill. The illustrations are chiefly from a fine set of
photographs by Mr. W. S. Campbell.

This is an authoritative history of the Cathedral from the earliest
days to the present by the Archdeacon of London, and it will aim at
giving a popular and at the same time an accurate account of the
Cathedral’s history. The pictures are a special feature, being of
unusual beauty.
