T.9735 PRISONERS OF THE TOWER3 REELS
The Tower of london, an ancient fortress, standing at the gateway to the
capital, has always been a centre of attraction to visitors to the City. Tradition
points to Julius Caesar as the founder of the Tower, so it is not unnatural to see
that much of England's history has been founded on the events and happenings
that have taken place within its boundaries. Who amongst us has not read of
the Traitor's Gate and the Bloody Tower without feeling a deep sense of
curiosity? Who has not wondered about the other secrets and history that are
forever chained within its Walls? This pictorial record will prove of immense
interest and will have a strong appeal to people of all ages.
