Local material is interesting- where else, for example, would it be possible to get details of the skirmish that took place at Appleby? - While there is also a good account of the siege of Pontefract castle. Add to this a useful collection of maps and photographs, and the result is a work that many members of the battlefield trust might wish to have on their bookshelf. - School of History

There is a timeline and a glossary of terms, a series of maps, and short biographies of some of those mentioned in the text. The bibliography is extensive, and a there is separate appendix discussing sources of information. This book is minutely researched and well-written. - Hexham Local History Society
