The March of Wales thus formed a highly distinctive part of the political geography of Britain for much of the Middle Ages.

"This is a well-written study which is full of interesting information about the people who were involved in the history of the March, in various capacities.

This fascinating book should make that wish a distinct possibility."Rachel Bellerby, Suite101.com Read more...
