From New York Times bestselling historian Dan Jones, a grand and sweeping history of the world, told through over three thousand years of iconic fortifications

Castles have been built to defend humanity for millennia—from the walls of Troy in the Bronze Age and the desert bastion of Krak des Chevaliers in Syria; to Windsor Castle and the Tower of London; to Himeji in Japan and Fort Sumter in Charleston, South Carolina. They have inspired terror and passion, foiled conquering forces, and been deployed as the ultimate expression of wealth, status, and supremacy.

In Castles, Jones leads listeners on a journey through the many eras of castle-building and across continents as each stronghold tells a unique story of power, politics, and survival, revealing the shifting tides of warfare, the rise and fall of empires, the resilience of people under siege, and the flourishing of new ideas.

Blending rich storytelling with deep research, Castles is an epic story of why humans build fortifications and how they powerfully capture our imagination. With Jones's trademark scholarship and flair, he shows how defiance, endurance, and ambition have been carved into the landscapes we've inherited.

批評家のレビュー

“A dynamic history of castles and other fortifications... readers are regaled with historical anecdotes about individuals connected to the sites, as well as in-depth descriptions of the sites’ intended purposes and subsequent uses.... [Jones] offers a lively and engaging book that will capture the imaginations of castle enthusiasts everywhere.” —Library Journal

“A leisurely global history of castles and fortifications... Jones’s loose-limbed confection of military history, archaeology, and cultural study come[s] equipped with both hair-raising war stories and colorful characters. The result is an entertaining tour of some of the world’s most iconic structures and dramatic sagas.” —Publishers Weekly

“[An] entertaining, fact-filled history of fortifications… vividly described in a breezy, absorbing writing style that’s buttressed by meticulous research… A fascinating look at the human impulse to protect and defend homes, communities, and nations.” —Kirkus, starred review
