A history of the one of England’s most iconic landmarks, The Tower of London, as told by it’s most famous and long standing residents, the ravens. From the Norman invasion in 1066, through the Medieval and Tudor periods, to the modern day and the spectacular poppies installation of 2014, the ravens take us on a fun and informative journey through the Tower’s story. Each page of the story is accompanied by a full colour hand-drawn illustration and the book is introduced by a foreword from the Tower Raven-master himself, Chris Skaife.
