Excerpt: ...Poor King John lived to see what had been done, for the whole amount asked was not to be got, and, true to his knightly honour, he came back from France to "render himself," and died in the Savoy, in London. INTERIOR OF THE CASTLE, NORTH SIDE. The interior of the group of rooms extending from the north side of the Norman Gate to the angle at which the red-coated porters await visitors, now devoted to a very fine library, is not always shown. But for those who have leave, a most interesting collection of medals, illuminated manuscripts, ancient bindings, and Oriental miniatures, is displayed. Handsome Elizabethan chimney-pieces, on one of which the great Queen herself is represented, warm the north wall (p. 105). The windows on the other, embayed in presses full of well-arranged literature, look out towards that far-off church, the spire of which is easily recognised through a glass, where Gray wrote his immortal "Elegy." One little room is that in which Queen Anne was sitting when Marlborough's despatch announcing the victory of Blenheim was brought to her (p. 103). Where the library ends is the first of a set of splendid apartments, used only by the public, and the greatest sovereigns. Paintings by Zuccarelli, who, at his best, is always most pleasing, are hung over cabinets containing very beautiful porcelain. Onwards, on the north side, room after room can be most profitably examined, for the pictures are of particular interest, either on account of their history or their art Formerly the Sovereign's family lived in this part of the Castle.

This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Governor's Guide to Windsor Castle And as in looking out from One of those high perched Italian monasteries, you watch, as they break through the silver sea of the morning clouds, the rugged masses of the mountain pinnacles; so, in glancing back over the levels of history, the castles break out of the mists, challenging attention as the visible remnants of that land which seems lost under the shining floor of vapour. We have heard stories of the prowess of this king, and of the cruelty of that knight; of the wisdom of one reign, and of the ruin brought upon another, but history remains half hidden to the mind, until we see the very stones, the very halls which were reared by the actors in the drama, and tread the paths that heard their footsteps as they passed to their destiny.

Book excerpt: *The most serene beauty of nature*Beautiful coffee-table volume*Exquisite photographs of enchanting winter landscapesThree-times winner of the Eric Hosking Award for BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year, Vincent Munier takes us on a tour of this silent, frozen world. From the Far East to the Wild West, via the craggy peaks of the European Alps, we encounter swans, cranes, eagles, chamois, foxes, and many other animals in the hush of their stunning, snowbound habitats. Shadows, shapes, contours, and the occasional flash of color are all that reveal the creatures huddled into the snow and braced against the wind, quite in their element in the elements.Vincent Munier's photographs have been exhibited in over thirty-five countries and his reportages published in magazines such as "National Geographic." He became internationally known as an animal photographer after winning the Eric Hosking Award in the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition in 2000, 2001 and 2002.
