Inhaltsangabe

After 80 years, still the most coherent and comprehensive account of how the 15th-century English dynastic war impacted Wales, where many of the major battles were fought and from which both sides drew major support. Evans uses contemporary poets as sources of opinion, if not always of accurate facts. The work is itself now a primary source, demonstrating how Welsh nationalist scholars at the turn of the century sought to reclaim history for Wales and to establish the roots of their struggle in early times. The index is almost entirely place and personal names. The 1915 edition was published by Cambridge University Press; this is a paper edition of Sutton's 1995 reprint. Distributed in the US by Books International. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
