The Royal Armouries is Britain's oldest museum, still partly housed
in its original buildings in the Tower of London. The core of the
collection is the medieval arsenal that was restocked by Henry VIII
and on show to privileged visitors as early as the reign of
Elizabeth I. After 1660, the general public was admitted and a
series of spectacular exhibits was set up, one of which included
instruments of torture and punishment. Since that time, they have
been one of the Tower's prime attractions, enhanced by the macabre
stories that surround them. This fascinating book sets these
instruments of torture and punishment in their proper context and
explores whether the Tower deserves its grim reputation.
