Conquest, Coexistence, And Change: Wales, 1063 1415

Oxford History of Wales series

This volume traces Wales's struggle to retain independence and identity in the face of the Anglo-Norman conquest and subsequent English rule. A thorough examination of this lengthy period of turmoil, the book not only covers the landmark campaign of Edward I in 1282-3 but also recounts the last major revolt by Owain Glen Dwr in 1400-1415, providing a full account of how the society, economy, and church of Wales were transformed during these centuries of conquest.
