The town that grew up below Devizes Castle was granted its first royal charter by Queen Matilda in 1141 and has had a long and dramatic history - as the site of a royal power struggle in the 12th century, Civil War battles and religious controversy. Examining Devizess past in scholarly detail, this volume reprints volume III of the Victoria History of Wiltshire (1956), newly edited by Ralph Pugh.
