Winchester has one of the darkest and most fascinating histories on record--more than 2,000 years of death, disease, and destruction. Containing dozens of true stories, including the tale of William Walker, the diver who spent five years in pitch-black water under the cathedral; the Queen who walked on fire; with 'sufferings she could not describe' concerning the life and dolorous death of Miss Jane Austen; and the secret histories of Winchester's most famous buildings. You'll never see the city in the same way again!
