‘The bishop became the first state prisoner to be locked up in the Tower of London: after six months, he became the first to escape from the Tower. ’
For nearly eight hundred years, the bishops of Durham ruled like kings between Tees and Tyne. Simon Webb’s book takes a close look at eight of the most famous prince bishops, and explains the origins and development of this unique
piece of English history.
