About this title: Stretching from the Ice Ages to the present day, this masterful account traces the political, social and cultural history of the land that has come to be called Wales. Spanning prehistoric hill forts and Roman ruins to the Reformation, the Industrial Revolution and the series of strikes by Welsh miners in the late twentieth century, this is the definitive history of an enduring people: a unique and compelling exploration of the origins of the Welsh nation, its development and its role in the modern world. This new edition brings this remarkable history into the new era of the Welsh Assembly.

"I gave it all I had, but it finally crushed my sole at about page 450. I almost made it through, but I could just not read another page. The author's prose, his approach of the subject matter, and the lack of depth of information regarding much of the material was just disappointing. I felt myself not being able to follow his train of thought at times. The author spent much of the time just covering the different religious movements through out the countryside of the time, while never painting a well fleshed-out picture of the country and its inhabitants. I ended up knowing more than I would have ever liked to about "nonconformist" itinerant preachers and I still couldn't even tell you about any of the major crops or the influences of those on the agricultural/rural economy. Lame."
