This Caldecott Honor book is about a fictional castle that was built 1283-1288. Although the castle itself is fictional all of the information is factual. There is great detail in the story and the pictures are done in black and white drawings. This would be enjoyed by anyone that has an engineer type mind or enjoys history.
Despite loving David Macaulay's PBS programs Castle and Cathedral since childhood, I had never read this book until now. The programs followed me through my education from elementary school to community college and I later bought them on DVD so I could continue watching them at home and share them with my children. His drawing style influenced my own, which I believe later influenced my daughter's. I had the opportunity to meet Macaulay after a lecture at Utah State University in October, 2014 and he was as smart, kind, and creative as I always thought he was. He not only signed our copy of Cathedral, but he also left an original drawing on the title page. I'll treasure it forever. ( )

By that time Master James's might castle sood partially roofless and completely neglected except as a quarry for new buildings, and his once impressive town wall was now more of a nuisance to the town fathers than a necessity.
