Buchbeschreibung Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This history of the buildings of the Tower of London - one of England's most famous and popular tourist sites - shows how the monument has changed over the centuries. The author, who has himself undertaken detailed excavations in the Tower, traces the development of the fortifications and the evolution of the palatial complex. He looks at the numerous functions the buildings of the Tower have been put to fortress, armoury, palace, prison, mint and even zoo - and the adaptations made to house them all. Incorporating the results of recent archaeological investigations and documentary research, and using plans, reconstructions, photographs and drawings, this book shows how each age has affected the appearance of the Tower and unlocks some of its architectural secrets. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Artikel-Nr. GOR001883153
