It goes into the facts and chronology of Welsh history; its armed struggles, tribal leaders, insurgents. Wales is an area of land, mostly mountainous, fought over with passion over ten centuries, its castles are its symbolic centres, built with tremendous labour to show strenghth, to protect leaders, to live within. They are a very visible remnant of the historical past. This we believe is the best handbook ever published on the subject. It presents succinct and relevant background material which cannot fail to enhance the visitor's understanding and pleasure.
