This is a study of royal government in the southern counties of the
principality of Wales between the beginning of Edward I's conquest
in 1277 and Henry VIII's 'act of Union'. This reprinted edition of
the book, first published in 1972, includes a new introduction to
incorporate recent writings on the subject. Part I discusses the
administrative framework of Carmarthenshire and Cardiganshire and
the way in which it evolved in response to the political needs and
reactions of governors and governed. Part II is a comprehensive
biographical calendar of the officers of English kings and princes
in south Wales, based on a wide range of published and unpublished
sources - their careers, experience and wealth. The book has been
of great value to political and administrative historians, not only
of Wales but of England too, and it also retains a value for
students of Welsh society, and for literary and personal-name
scholars. No comparable comprehensive study of the involvement of
men (rarely of women) in public service in late-medieval Wales (or
indeed England) exists for this level of society and government.
