Castle
Stories
These stories are taken from
an unpublished manuscript by James M. Deem.
I didn't really know
much about medieval castles when I was growing up; I was more
interested in ghosts and UFOs. But my son David developed an early
interest in castles, and he taught me many things about them.
Motivated by David's fascination with all things medieval, I began
to research the topic of castles. Many years later, I have been
lucky enough to visit quite an assortment of them. One day I hope to
write a book that reflects my own fascination with these unique
fortifications.
Here then are three
castle stories that I've written, the first two involving deadly sieges.
