The world has seen its share of kings and queens who rose to, then fell from, power, but throughout these generations, their castles have survived. Poets Dotlich and Lewis journey to castles familiar - Bunratty, Hearst, and the Tower of London - and far-flung - Himeji, Bran, and Olavinlinna, exploring the legends and myths of yore. Facts about each structure, provided in the back of the book, will satisfy curious castle fans.
