used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to

original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Despite a frustrated ecclesiastical career - his ongoing failure to
secure the See of St David's embittered him - Giraldus Cambrensis
(Gerald of Wales, Gerald de Barry, c.1146-1220/3) composed many
remarkable literary works, initially while employed as a royal
clerk for Henry II and, subsequently, in semi-retirement in
Lincoln. Eight volumes of his works were compiled as part of the
Rolls Series of British medieval material. Volume 1, edited by
historian J. S. Brewer (1809-79) and published in 1861, with an
introduction in English to the Latin texts, consists of Giraldus'
polemical-apologetic account of his life and the St David's case,
and a collection of his letters, poems, and prefaces. Giraldus is
noted for his vigorous Latin and anecdotal style, and this volume
gives a vivid portrait of medieval Britain and the power struggles
of the Angevin court, while illuminating nineteenth-century
interest in the period.
