Northumbria at War explores war and conflict in Northumberland and Durham from the Celtic age to modern times. Rebellion, feud and civil disorder have smoldered and crackled across the North, destroying powerful families and local communities alike. Derek Dodds reconstructs these epic struggles, setting them in the context of their tumultuous times and recalling the human bravery and frailty that influenced their outcome. This account is based on Dodds' research, providing up-to-date information on the battlegrounds so that readers can see for themselves the evocative sites where these clashes of arms took place. Includes maps and more than 100 illustrations
