Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is an examination of how the highly significant castle on the river Tyne in Newcastle emerged as England's northern fortress. During the centuries, the castle has witnessed key moments in English history, from the resistance against William the Conqueror through to the Jacobite uprising. This book offers new insights into the role of the castle, which was a major stronghold in border warfare against Scotland, a focus of royal authority in the north of England, and a prison for high-status captives such as Mary, Queen of Scots. The author provides a detailed history of the castle, drawing on a wide range of sources, including archaeological evidence and historical documents. This book will be of interest to anyone interested in the history of castles, medieval warfare, or the history of northern England.
