The most comprehensive work available on the castles and fortified houses of the City of Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Renfrewshire, east Dunbartshire and the Lennox. Some 300 sites are described, from the impressive castles of Bothwell, Craignethan, Dumbarton, Crookston and Newark to fragmentary ruins and previously lost sites. Detailed histories are supplied of local families- such as the Polloks, Maxwells, Hamiltons, Douglases, Wallaces, Schaws, Weirs and Semples- as well as compelling stories of ghosts and feuds, kings, queens, and bishops, witchcraft and warfare. Over 130 photographs, drawings, maps and plans supplement the text. Visitor information is also included with location, access and facilities. There is a family index, main index, and full glossary.
