Arguably the most famous bridge in the world, Tower Bridge was built in the late nineteenth century & immediately acclaimed as a feat of Victorian engineering. Designed to ease road traffic while maintaining river access, it was constructed with giant moveable roadways that lift up for passing ships. It quickly became known as the ` Wonder Bridge`. Celebrating this truly iconic London structure, a focal point of the city & the River Thames, this book tells the story of the bridge & its design with a range of stunning historical & contemporary photos. The bridge`s history is brought to life with an array of fascinating facts (around 40, 000 people cross the bridge every day) & colourful anecdotes (in 1952 the driver of a double decker bus managed to jump the 3-foot gap when the bridge began to open up as he was halfway over). With a contemporary design & striking cover, this will be the perfect introduction to one of London`s most impressive sights. ...

The Tower of London is an icon of England`s history. William the Conqueror built the White Tower after his invasion & conquest in 1066, to dominate London & it has become infamous as a place of torture, execution & murder. The deaths of royals attracted most attention; the murder of Princes in the Tower, the beheading of Henry VIII`s wives, Anne Boleyn & Katherine Howard, & Lady Jane Grey, Henry`s great-niece, & queen for just nine days. Few prisoners recorded their experiences, but John Gerard, a Catholic priest imprisoned during Elizabeth I`s reign, wrote of being questioned in the torture-room, which contained `every device & instrument of torture`. After being hung from manacles, his wrists were swollen & he could barely walk. Members of the aristocracy could not be tortured, & those incarcerated for a long time used their time to write. Sir Walter Raleigh wrote his vast History of the World in the Tower. Control of the Tower was vital at times of crisis, during rebellions & civil wars. It has also been the country`s principal arsenal, it housed the royal mint, the national archives, the crown jewels & wealthy Londoners` riches, & in the royal menagerie it contained one of the earliest zoos. Stephen Porter`s landmark new history traces the evolution of the Tower & it`s changing role, the many personalities who lived or were imprisoned there, & the `voices` of contemporaries during the Tower`s long history, spanning almost 1000 years. ...
