The Tower Of London
Arthur Poyser
Read by David Wales
Description. History. “… those who read this book and have no opportunity of visiting the Tower expect that the characters in the moving drama of its history shall have some semblance of life as they walk across the stage…. My wish has been to persuade those who come to visit the Tower that there is a great deal to be seen in its immediate vicinity… A noble and historic building like the Tower resembles a venerable tree whose roots have spread into the soil in all directions, during the uncounted years of its existence, far beyond the position of its stem.” - Summary by Book Preface and David Wales (5 hr 1 min)

Reviews
AVID READER
A delightful vocal tour of this famous edifice, replete with well-summarized history. This is doubtless the closest that I will ever come to visiting these confines. Thanks to David Wales for his clear narration.
