This book provides a fascinating account of the castles of East Anglia, and is illustrated throughout with lots of small black and white photographs, as well as drawings, maps and floor plans.

From the rear side cover: This book is a comprehensive guide to the history and architecture of over a hundred castellated buildings dating from the mid 11th century to the mid 16th century in the counties of Cambridgeshire, Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk. Following an introduction describing the development of fortified buildings in these counties are four gazetteers illustrated with many plans and photographs. The book includes castles of stone and brick, motte and bailey castles which only ever had earth and timber defences, moated or embattled manor houses, tower houses, town defences and coastal blockhouses and artillery forts.

The condition of the book is generally very good. The covers are clean and bright, the spine is tight and intact, and all pages are clean, intact, unblemished and tightly bound. There is an old price printed and a small price sticker on the rear side cover.
