The castles chosen in htis little book exemplify most periods and styles of castle building in Scotland; from the stone castles and Byzantine influenced fortresses of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries to the impressive edifices of the sixteenth century, built not only for security and defence, but also for status and prestige. Each of the twenty-seven is illustrated by a charming and evocative water-colour.
