GHOSTS OF THE TOWER OF LONDON (SIGNED)

Paperback. SIGNED. The author, a former Yeoman Warder, explores the spectral legends tied to the fortress’s grim history. He recounts hauntings like Anne Boleyn’s headless figure, the Princes in the Tower’s restless spirits, and eerie sounds of executed prisoners. Organised by Tower locations, it blends historical accounts of executions and torture with brief ghostly encounters, such as floating glasses or unexplained screams. While rich in atmosphere from Abbott’s insider perspective, the book leans heavily on history, offering sparse supernatural detail, making it more a historical narrative than a ghost story collection. Illus., Select Bibliog. 85pp. p/back. With loosely inserted postcard of the author in his Beefeater uniform at the Tower of London. PRESENTATION COPY INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY GEOFFREY ABBOTT. Sl. sunned o/w Nr. F. with no creasing to covers.
