IN SEARCH OF OWAIN GLYNDWR
by Chris Barber
Published by Blorenge Books. 1st. 1998
Slightly better than very good condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper. Owain Glyndwr was born of noble ancestry and the greatest living representative of the royal house of Wales. His uprising began at Glyndyfrdwy, North Wales, in 1400 with his followers proclaiming him Prince of Wales. A man ahead of his time with a political vision of a free Wales, with an independent senate, universities in the south and the north, to train Welshmen to the service of Wales, a Welsh Church independent of England and himself as the ruling prince. By 1410 Owain had become a hunted outlaw after suffering a series of defeats and disappeared into the mists of time to be remembered as a Welsh patriot whose exploits were comparable to those of the mighty King Arthur. Green cloth boards, gilt titles. B/w photos and illustrations.
SIGNED with personal dedication to front endpaper. Contents clean. Pictorial dustwrapper is lightly scuffed.
