When we envision the British monarchy, one of the first things that comes to mind is Buckingham Palace, with its gilded gates and changing of the guard. But it is Windsor Castle that can claim pride of place as the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world, dating to the earliest days of the monarchy, a symbol of strength and magnificence over a nearly thousand-year history of sieges and soirées alike. Witness to both great moments in the countrys history and those that threatened to destroy it, the castle has become a symbol of English culture and architecture. Throughout Englands history, Windsor Castle has stood fast and evolved, much like the monarchy that inhabits it to this day.
The magisterial Windsor Castle: A Thousand Years of a Royal Palace illuminates the castles past using evidence from archaeological investigation and documentary sources, and is illustrated with paintings, drawings, and both historical and specially commissioned contemporary photographs, as well as stunning reconstructions of the castles past appearance which bring this essential piece of English history to life.
