Descrição da editora

After William, the French Duke of Normandy, defeated King Harold of England at the Battle of Hastings, William became King of England. He built a fortress along the River Thames where he could maintain control of London and watch any invaders coming along the river.
The fortress became The Tower of London. Over the years, it has been added to and destroyed. It has been a palace, zoo, Museum, Royal Mint, observatory, prison, and a place of execution and murder for many unlucky souls.
Today, its Towers display the secrets of its past while its ghosts wander the grounds at night.
