Description
Originally published in 1915, this book presents an examination of the struggle between Lancaster and York from the standpoint of Wales and the Marches. The text demonstrates the unique role of the region in the development of the conflict, revealing a more formidable and decisive influence than generally believed. It is also notable for using Welsh poets from the period as authorities, with a chapter being devoted to discussing their value as historical sources. Detailed notes are incorporated throughout. Genealogical tables, maps and a bibliography are also included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the Wars of the Roses and Welsh history.
