My purpose was a simple one, to endeavour to interest Londoners in their own possession. I have stepped into no controversies, still less have I attempted any contribution towards settling them. If I am told that everything here said is familiar, then I shall be glad, for that will indicate a deeper knowledge by London citizens of their historical buildings and the matchless history of their city than has been disclosed to my own experience.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Authorised Guide to the Tower of London House, which cost 22 and 20d., was built for it, the first elephant, it was said, ever seen north of the Alps. We hear of lions in the reigns of the three Edwards, and a little later the office of Keeper was held by men of superior rank, and sometimes b the Lieutenant. Edward III had a lion and onces; Henry VI kept lions and leopards Henry VIII had four large lions and two leopards James I baited the lions in 1604 and 1609 under Cromwell there were six lions here, and in the reign of Queen Anne, eleven, besides other animals. In 1754 they were reduced to two, but in 1796 there were four lionesses and one lion, and it is recorded that they constantly bred in the Tower. Nevertheless, by 1822, the breed was extinct. Many superstitions were connected with the Tower lions, and their death was looked upon as ominous. An old lion died just before Queen Elizabeth, and another, as was much noted at the time, two days before Charles II.

This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tower of London, Vol. 1 of 2 It would be vain to search any other city, Rome itself not excepted, for another such group of buildings, or to match the historic interest and splendid record of the ancient Norman structure. The Tower is indeed rife with interest; the most dramatic events of our country's history during more than seven hundred years have been enacted within or near its walls. To see it is to conjure up a vision of scenes, some brilliant and stately, some tragic and awful, but all full of deepest interest to the hearts and minds of Britons, to whom the history of their land is dear. Although several works - some voluminous, such as the two ponderous quartos by John Bayley, published in 182 5, and some more recent, such as the histories of the Tower by Britton and Brayley, and, more recently still, those by Lord de Ros and Doyne Bell - have appeared, I venture to think that in writing the present account of the Tower I have not undertaken a thankless or a useless task.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Authorised Guide to the Tower of London: Abridged; Revised Edition The Tower of London was founded in 1078, by William the Conqueror, for the purpose of protecting and controlling the city. To make room for his chief buildings he removed two bastions of the old wall of London, and encroached slightly upon the civic boundaries. Part therefore of the Tower is in London, and part in Middlesex, but it forms, with its surrounding fortifications, a precinct in itself which belongs neither to the city nor the county. It covers an area of 18 acres within the Garden rails. The present buildings are partly of the Norman period; but architecture of almost all the styles which have flourished in England may be found within the walls. It is well to remember that though the Tower is no longer a place of great military strength it has in time past been a fortress, a palace, and a prison, and to view it rightly we must regard it in this threefold aspect. It was first built as a fortress, and has a central Keep, called the "White Tower." The Inner Ward is defended by a wall, flanked by thirteen towers, the entrance to it being on the south side under the Bloody Tower. The Outer Ward is defended by a second wall, flanked by six towers on the river face, and by three semicircular bastions on the north face.

This book was released on 2016-09-20 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tower of London, Vol. 2 of 2 Owing to the plague then raging in London, the customary procession at the coronation was omitted, although the King rode in state from the Tower to Westminster, preparatory to the Opening of his first Parliament on 1sth Of March 1605, as the Londoners had made their welcome for him ready. In Mr Sidney Lee's Life of Shakespeare, he states that Shakespeare, with eight other players of the King's company of actors, walked from the Tower of London to Westminster in the procession which accompanied the King in his formal entry into London. Each actor received four and a half yards of scarlet cloth to wear as a cloak on the occasion, and in the document authorising the grant, Shakespeare's name stands first on the list. This is the only time that we can positively know that Shakespeare was ever at the Tower; but his frequent introduction Of the fortress into his historical dramas makes it certain that he must often have visited a place so full of dramatic episodes and historical memories.
