In this follow up to the author’s hugely popular History of
Newcastle, John Grundy turns his attention to the vast and
beguiling history of Northumberland. Drawing on his experience as a
Listed Buildings Man, John traces the county’s turbulent history
with particular focus on the castles, mansions, houses and streets
where people lived their lives and fought for survival. Whether it
be civil wars, invading armies, plague or poverty, the people of
Northumberland have toughed it out throughout the centuries against
all kind of challenges. However, one thing that has remained
constant is the wild beauty of the place. From its glorious
coastline to the splendid market towns with their monuments, grand
houses and fortifications, this vast county has the ability to both
evoke the past while bringing pleasure to its current inhabitants
‑ as well as millions of tourists every year. Featuring new
attractive colour photographs this book will give you a greater
appreciation of the place, its buildings and its people and
provides the perfect companion to further explore the county.
John’s journey to get to the heart of what it means to experience
Northumberland has taken decades and, in this book, he wants to
share with you a very personal take on why the county means so much
to him.
