This is an engaging, best-selling volume reproduced with text
panels that provide brief biographies of historical figures and
descriptions of major historical sites in Wales. As the only
concise history of Wales currently available in print, this book is
an ideal introductory study for the general reader. From primitive
Stone Age cave-dwellers who were the earliest recorded inhabitants
of Wales, through settlement by the Celts before the Roman and
Norman invasions, this book leads the reader through the age of the
native Welsh princes that culminated with the eventual conquest of
Wales by Edward I in 1282. Later seminal themes include the passage
of the so-called Union legislations of 1536 and 1543, the impact of
successive religious changes, the agrarian and industrial
revolutions, and the severe interwar depression of the twentieth
century. This new edition concludes with a discussion of the
far-reaching political, social and economic changes covering the
momentous period from the close of the twentieth century to the
present day.
