Exeter's rich history lies just beneath its modern surface. This city, with its thriving university and bustling high street, may seem like a typical British town, but scratch beneath the surface to uncover secrets of the past. The city's ancient walls, medieval underground passages, and wartime devastation are well-known, but lesser-known aspects of Exeter's history remain shrouded in mystery. Local authors Tim Isaac and Chris Hallam delve into these forgotten corners of the city's past, shedding light on events such as the devastating Victorian theatre fire and multiple sieges that have shaped Exeter over centuries. Through their research, they reveal a complex and fascinating history that is waiting to be uncovered.
