Carte - Defending Northamptonshire. The Military Landscape from Pre-history to the Present, Paperback/Mike Osborne

Northamptonshire's central position astride some of England's major routes made it the scene of decisive battles, skirmishes and sieges whose evidence is reflected in the landscape. Visible defensive sites, ranging from castles to missile bases, are described in this book and placed in their social, political, historical and military contexts.
