After a late and shaky start because of the jealousies of local
agricultural societies, the Welsh National Agricultural Society
founded in 1904 (to be renamed the Royal Welsh Agricultural Society
in 1922) was to surmount many problems and difficulties in its
first seventy years or so to become by the 1980s one of the three
major agricultural societies in the United Kingdom. This remarkable
success story is traced by David Howell in fourteen chapters which
cover the holding of the show at Aberystwyth from 1904 to 1909, the
migratory years between 1910 and 1962 when some 37 'canvass towns'
were erected at different centres in north and south Wales in
alternative years, and the society's fortunes on the permanent site
at Llanelwedd from 1963.
