This is not really an atlas, but a collection of 50 documents. Disappointment because I expected to find a list of all the castles of France This lack;). With regard to visualize the evolution of the root ball to the least that can be said is that this citadel lack of organization. The classification (sic) is arbitrarily geographical allowing no way to study, view, the supposed evolution. Not ugly, but useless, except as limited photographic works complement other more 'serious'.
If you are interested in architecture, plans, evolution of the fortifications, see rather the Mesqui ("Castles and Town Walls of medieval France: Defence residence"), the Viollet Le Duc ("medieval Encyclopedia ") and the Salch (" Dictionary of castles and fortifications of the Middle Ages in France ")
