I've never seen a book that just covers the construction of castles. However, many of the better texts have a chapter on castle construction. Castles of the British Isles by Plantagenet Somerset Fry has a good chapter. Castles, Their Construction and History by Sidney Toy has much to offer but is a bit difficult to sort through. Norman Castles in Britain by Derek Renn has a short, but excellent, chapter. My web site has biblography with details of these books------------------ Neurotics build castles in the air, psychotics live in them, Psychiatrists charge the rent, art therapists do the interior design and nurses clean out the garderobes! http://www.castlesontheweb.com/members/philipdavis/index.html | |
