A History of Wales 1485-1660 Bewertungen

'The strength of this volume lies in its perceptive and lucid study of the administrative, social, economic and cultural scene ... providing a sound exposition of the objectives, obligations and conditions of life of the various classes in the social hierarchy.' - Welsh History Review Few periods of Welsh history have attracted more attention in schools and colleges than that covered by Mr Hugh Thomas"s book. The events of that period have certainly had a decisive influence upon the development of modern Wales, but students and pupils wishing to acquaint themselves with the background have for long felt the need of a comprehensive basic text-book. Mr Thomas has now met this need, and this volume ...provides a sound survey not only of the political and religious history of the period, but also of its cultural, social and economic aspects... -Welsh History Review
