Siege City- The Story of Derry and Londonderry by Brian Lacy

This illustrated history sweeps across the full span of Derry's rich, varied past- the legend of Colmcille, the tale of 'half-hanged' McNaghten, vivid evocations of medieval and plantation times, incisive accounts of the Siege of Derry and Bloody Sunday- tracing it's evolution from a simple monastic settlement to a bustling modern city. As Brian Lacy unravels the complex strands of history that have created today's Derry, he brings to life the men and women who have shaped Derry's unique, robust identity down through the ages.
