Chapter 30 The Crown Must Win Previous Post | Next Post Table of Contents Once the guided tour portion of the Tower of London was done, we kept walking around the grounds on our own. Practically every corner of this massive complex has some level of historical significance, so there’s a lot we still didn’t get a …

Chapter 29 Beefeater Peter Previous Post | Next Post Table of Contents The Tower of London was one of the attractions that we were most excited to visit in London — mostly because an obscure novel that both Tracy and I had read at least five years earlier contained a bunch of Tower history amidst the plot. …
